all about shipping and receiving jobs
Shipping and receiving professionals play a key role in ensuring organizations can get their products to their customers in a timely fashion. They ensure products are shipped safely, effectively, and on time.

Success in this role can lead to many other roles in the supply chain and logistics industry.
what shipping & receiving jobs entail
Shipping and receiving professionals typically work in a warehouse or retail outlet. You may work in a standalone warehouse or a shipping and receiving dock for a retail store. Expect to work in shifts, which can be days, evenings or nights. Overtime is also common, and you may be required to work additional hours during busy periods such as the holidays. You can expect to report to a shift supervisor or warehouse manager.

Depending on the type of work available, you could work in a warehouse, retail store, distribution center, or production facility.

A driver’s license and forklift operations license may be a requirement for some roles. Additional training in workplace health and safety is an asset.
