Warehouse Sorter

Job Summary

This role centers on moving incoming freight through our sorting process quickly and correctly. You'll break down pallets, scan items, and direct them to the right bin, chute, or outbound line based on what's printed on the label. Some hours are slow and methodical. Other times, particularly during morning receiving, the volume comes in fast and you're sorting under pressure without letting accuracy slide. You'll check for damaged goods as they pass through and set them aside rather than letting them continue down the line. We also count on you to top off bins and replace worn labels before they cause a slowdown. The job involves a good deal of standing, walking, and lifting, typically in the 20–40 pound range. You'll record batch numbers at shift end so counts line up with what came in. Sorting mistakes usually get caught at the scan point, before anything moves further. It's a role that rewards steady focus more than speed alone.

Responsibilities

• Breaking down pallets and separating items by type
• Scan and route packages to assigned bins
• Inspecting items for damage before they continue down the line
• Loading sorted freight onto carts or conveyor sections
• Restock labels and bin supplies as they thin out
• Recording batch counts at the close of each shift
• Clearing walkways and resetting stations between runs
• Notify a supervisor of mislabeled or missing shipments

Qualifications

• You spot small inconsistencies, like a barcode that doesn't line up with its bin, before they turn into bigger problems.
• Coworkers find you easy to check in with, especially when something needs a second opinion.
• When receiving runs long or volume jumps without notice, you keep your pace instead of losing ground.
• Picking up a handheld scanner or sorting software isn't something you struggle with once it's explained.
• You're reliable about showing up when scheduled, since the lines depend on full coverage to keep moving.
• A jammed scanner or overflowing bin doesn't throw you off; you deal with it and keep going.
• Your area tends to stay in order, since you put things back where they belong as you go.
• Ability to multitask comes naturally when a few things need attention around the same time.
