Summary
I’m an upbeat warehouse supervisor that believes one of the most important aspects to having a warehouse run smoothly is teamwork. To achieve this I focus on making sure everyone works well together and communicates often. I am very organized and constantly trying to think of new/better ways to operate to maximize efficiency and cut down on mistakes. I am very vigilant when it comes to inventory and quality. I like to walk through the entire warehouse at the beginning of each shift and make sure to catch anything that is amiss. Checking orders that have been picked before they ship is one of the way I make sure nothing ships that is incorrect or damaged. I work closely with other supervisors on timelines and managing team members. Training is one of my best qualities because I believe the better I can train a team member, the better it is for everyone.
