About the Role

The Warehouse Associate plays a critical role in the safe and efficient operation of our warehouse, with a focus on natural stone slab handling and container receiving. This position is responsible for unloading, moving, staging, organizing, and storing large natural stone slabs and related materials using forklifts, cranes, and other warehouse equipment.

Responsibilities

  • Work as part of a trained crew to safely unload 20-foot ocean containers containing bundled marble, granite, quartzite, and other natural stone slabs.
  • Safely operate forklifts, cranes, and other designated warehouse equipment to unload, move, stage, and store large stone slabs.
  • Follow established slab-handling procedures when lifting, separating, securing, and positioning bundled materials to prevent injury or product damage.
  • Inspect incoming and outgoing materials for damage, verify quantities and receiving information, and report discrepancies.
  • Load and unload flatbed, box, and other delivery trucks while safely handling heavy, oversized, and fragile materials.
  • Maintain accurate inventory records and material locations and assist with cycle counts and physical inventories.
  • Keep container receiving, slab storage, and general warehouse areas clean, organized, and free of safety hazards.
  • Follow all company safety policies, equipment procedures, and applicable OSHA requirements.
  • Collaborate with warehouse team members, supervisors, suppliers, and carriers to support efficient inbound and outbound operations.
  • Participate in the rotating Saturday schedule as assigned based on business and staffing needs.

Requirements

  • Minimum of 2 years of warehouse experience in a stone yard, distribution center, building materials environment, or similar setting.

  • Experience loading and unloading flatbed or box trucks with heavy materials.
  • Ability to work a rotating Saturday schedule as required.

Skills

  • Strong safety awareness when working around heavy equipment, suspended loads, and high-value materials.
  • Ability to work effectively as part of a coordinated warehouse team.
  • Strong attention to detail when inspecting, receiving, staging, and storing materials.
