Required:

• Prior warehouse experience is required

The Opportunity

Our client, a high-growth manufacturing and distribution company in the Greater Austin area, is adding a Materials Handler Associate to their warehouse operations team on a temp-to-hire basis. This is a hands-on, floor-level role on a small, tight-knit team of 10 to 12 associates where the work is visible and the people who bring consistent effort and a good attitude get noticed.

The company is in an exciting growth phase, with expanded facilities and a major new production line on the horizon. That growth creates real opportunity for the right person. An upcoming internal promotion is expected to open a path forward, and leadership has a track record of advancing associates who demonstrate reliability and initiative. This is not a dead-end warehouse job; it is a starting point for someone who wants to grow with a company that is building something.

What You'll DO:

Receiving and Put-Away:

• Unload inbound shipments and verify contents against packing lists and purchase orders
• Scan incoming items and ensure accurate entry into the inventory system
• Transport and store materials in designated locations according to warehouse layout and procedures

Inventory Management:

• Participate in cycle counts and physical inventory procedures to maintain accuracy
• Flag discrepancies between physical counts and system records and escalate appropriately
• Keep storage areas organized and properly labeled

Picking, Packing, and Shipping:

• Pull orders accurately from warehouse locations using pick lists or scanner-guided workflows
• Pack finished goods according to established standards for outbound shipments across multiple channels, including Amazon FBA, wholesale, and direct-to-consumer
• Support dock operations, including coordinating outbound shipments with carriers

Safety and General Operations:

• Operate within established safety protocols and report any hazards or near-misses promptly
• Maintain a clean, organized work area at all times
• Support cross-functional tasks as needed in a small-team environment where flexibility is valued

Why This Role

Our client operates a large-scale warehouse and distribution facility in Georgetown, Texas, handling thousands of SKUs across premium retail, commercial foodservice, and e-commerce channels. They have recently implemented a modern SAP-based ERP system and are actively building out domestic manufacturing capabilities, which means the operation is growing and improving at a steady pace.

The team is small enough that your contributions are seen every day. Leadership promotes from within and is looking for people who want to be part of something long-term. If you show up, do the work, and engage with the team, there is a clear path to full-time employment and advancement as the company scales.
