Position Available: Material Handler / Inventory Control - 3rd shift
Show CategoriesWe are looking for a Material Handler to join our materials team and handle our Inventory Control. Join our Material Handler team on 3rd shift (11pm-7am) in the wonderful world of parts! We work 8 hour shifts at J.W. Speaker!
About the Position: Your day kicks off with a team meeting to go over updates, metrics & transition shifts. From there, you’ll be running our cycle count program. This includes coordinating and reconciling counts, reporting results and implementing actions to improve inventory accurate. If you like some variety in your day, you will also help put away inventory and use a “pick list” to identify what parts you need to find in our supermarket, and determine where they need to go on the production floor.
Time management is crucial in this role since there is always more to be done at this growing company. At times you may be chasing down a part or solving the root cause of a problem.
Our Ideal Candidate: You should like numbers in this position since you’ll be doing things like cycle counting, finding part discrepancies& using basic Excel skills. Ideally, you’re a hustler who works well independently all day, but you also enjoy being part of a team. Accuracy & attention to detail are king in this role in order to get the job done right. Throughout the day, you’ll always be communicating & multi-tasking. Expect to move fast & provide continuous flow to ensure stable support to our Electronics, Mold & Assembly departments.
To thrive in this role, you’ll need an open mind, sense of humor & passion for learning. Most importantly, our most successful material handlers are self-motivated & always bring their ‘A’ game to work.

- By making creative improvements to work smarter, not harder
- By thinking outside the box to problem solve
- By communicating critical information to your team & several departments daily

- By contributing to a respectful, team-based environment
You will PERFORM
- By paying attention to detail to accurately cycle count
