Warehouse Material Handler

Description

For more than 60 years, Tyndale has helped readers discover the life-giving truths of God's Word. Today we're one of the largest independently owned Christian publishers in the world. Though our business has grown, our mission remains the same: to open God's Word to as many as possible in language they can relate to and understand.

Every Bible, novel, and children's book Tyndale publishes leaves our hands before it reaches a reader — and the majority of the profits from those shipments fund Bible translation, literature distribution, and humanitarian aid around the world. As a Warehouse Material Handler on our Distribution team, you make that possible. When orders go out accurately and on time, ministries get their resources, bookstores stay stocked, and readers get the Word in language they can understand.

Our Distribution team runs three warehouses across Receiving, Freight Shipping, Parcel Shipping, and Repackaging. You don't need warehouse experience to join us — we train from the ground up, on real equipment, and we care as much about how we treat each other as we do about hitting the day's numbers. And because we run a Monday-through-Friday day shift, your evenings and weekends belong to you.

What You'll Do

• Pick, pack, and ship parcel and freight orders accurately, so customers and ministry partners receive exactly what they ordered, on schedule
• Keep product flowing by replenishing stock throughout the Distribution areas
• Pull and stage pallets to keep other teams supplied and running without delays
• Process custom purchase orders and support inventory projects that keep our stock counts reliable
• Once trained, move stock between our facilities using company straight trucks

Paid Training We Provide

No experience required — you'll be certified on our equipment through hands-on training, and those certifications stay with you:

• Electric sit-down forklifts
• Electric order pickers
• Single and deep reach forklifts
• Straight box trucks
• Automatic stretch wrappers
• Shrink-wrapping equipment

Schedule and Location

• Monday through Friday, 1st shift, 8:00 a.m. – 4:30 p.m., with occasional overtime
• Full-time, on-site at our Carol Stream, Illinois facilities

Skills and Qualifications Needed

• Must be at least 18 years of age
• High school diploma or equivalent experience
• Willingness and aptitude to operate warehouse equipment safely and comfortably after completing hands-on training
• Able to read and follow written work instructions, product labels, and safety signage in English
• Basic computer and technology skills, or the aptitude to learn them
• Comfortable with basic math
• Works well with others in a team environment
• Able to walk, stand, pull, and occasionally lift up to 50 lbs.
• Valid driver's license and acceptable driving record required for associates trained to operate company straight trucks
