About the role
Saltbox is on a mission to simplify the hardest parts of running an eCommerce business. Our purpose-built spaces serve as modern headquarters for small to medium-sized businesses in industries like Fashion & Apparel, Health & Beauty, Electronics, and Household Goods. We offer a powerful combination of flexible warehouse suites, offices, and on-site logistics support that empower entrepreneurs to scale with confidence.
Responsibilities
- We're launching something new at Saltbox-and we need the right people to run it.
- Package Scanning & Sortation
- Scan every inbound package using the Sort App on a handheld device-each package gets two scans: presort and bin assignment.
- Maintain a target scan rate of 225 scans per hour (approximately 112 packages processed per hour).
- Sort packages into the correct shelving unit or bin based on batch and market assignment. Accuracy is critical-missorts delay drivers and risk SLA breaches.
- Staging & Dispatch
- Move sorted batches to the driver handoff zone before the dispatch window opens.
- Assist with dispatch scanning as drivers pick up their loads.
- Help ensure 99.5% of packages are dispatched by 11:00am.
- Driver Handoff & End-of-Shift Reconciliation
- Assist the Lead with driver coordination-staging packages for pickup, completing departure scans, and keeping the handoff zone organized.
- Help count on-hand packages at shift end and immediately flag any discrepancies to the Lead.
- Workspace Stewardship
- Keep the sortation area clean, organized, and safe throughout your shift.
- Return equipment to proper positions and maintain the Saltbox standard for Members and partners.
Requirements
- Key Qualities
- Dependable-your team can count on you being there, every shift.
- Focused and purposeful in a fast-paced, high-volume environment.
- Detail-oriented-right package, right bin, right scan, every time.
- Comfortable with technology and quick to learn new tools and apps.
- Works well on a team without needing constant direction.
- Takes physical work seriously and can stay on your feet for a full shift.
- Ability to stand for 6+ hours and lift/move packages up to 50 lbs (reasonable accommodation provided).
- Available for early morning shifts (typically 5:00am-1pm) on a rotating 7-day schedule with two consecutive days off. Shifts as early as 2:00am may be available as operations grow, with advance notice.
- Reliable transportation to your Saltbox location.
- Comfortable using handheld scanning devices and mobile apps.
- Prior experience in warehouse, logistics, fulfillment, or retail is a plus-but if you've got hustle, we'll train you on everything else.
