When a production line runs out of components, the most likely reason is a material handling failure somewhere upstream. The job looks simple; doing it well consistently is not.\nIn a manufacturing plant running a lean pull system, Material Handlers work off kanban triggers that tell them which parts to pick, in what quantity, and where to deliver them. The discipline is in executing those signals accurately and promptly - delivering to the right line location, in the right bin orientation, without mixing lot numbers. A wrong delivery that mixes controlled inventory creates a quality problem that takes engineering and quality hours to sort out.\nDuties and Responsibility:\n· Move raw materials, components, and finished goods between receiving, storage, production, and shipping areas using forklifts, reach trucks, or pallet jacks\n· Receive inbound shipments: unload trucks, verify counts and condition against purchase orders, and enter receipt transactions in the WMS (Warehouse Management System) or ERP system\n· Pick production materials from warehouse storage according to kanban cards, pick lists, or production schedules and deliver to point-of-use locations on the production floor\n· Stage finished goods in the shipping area, verify quantities and labels, and load outbound trucks per BOL (Bill of Lading) instructions\n· Perform cycle counts and physical inventory counts; reconcile discrepancies and notify supervisors of significant variances\n· Maintain orderly and labeled storage locations using 5S organization principles; move slow-moving or displaced inventory to correct locations\n· Inspect incoming materials for damage, count accuracy, and correct labeling; document and report discrepancies to receiving or quality\n· Operate powered industrial trucks safely per OSHA 1910.178 requirements and company-specific safety procedures\n· Dispose of cardboard, stretch wrap, wood pallets, and other packaging materials in designated recycling or waste areas\n· Report low stock situations, missing kanban cards, and any inventory discrepancies to material control supervisor\nSafety & Compliance:\n· Ensure all Health and Safety protocols, including PPE usage and safe work practices.\n· Ensure all personnel working on or visiting the production floor adhere to CEL policies / procedures.\n· Where repeated breaches of H&S policies (Health & Safety) occur, escalate to the Warehouse Manager.\n· Participate in H&S accident and incident investigations.\n· Verify safe use of equipment and highlight any issues / defects to the Warehouse Manager.\n· Maintain the production environment in an audit ready state.\n· Maintain compliance with ISO standards and company procedures.\nRequirements\nEducation:\nHigh school diploma or GED (standard requirement); No post-secondary education required for entry-level roles\nCertifications:\n· OSHA-compliant forklift operator certification (employer-provided; typically a half-day classroom and hands-on evaluation)\n· HAZMAT handling certification for facilities storing hazardous materials (DOT HazMat Employee Training)\n· Specific equipment certifications: reach truck, order picker, stand-up rider - each type requires separate certification under OSHA 1910.178\nTechnical skills:\n· Powered industrial truck operation: sit-down counterbalanced forklift, reach truck, pallet jack (electric and manual), order picker\n· WMS/ERP transaction processing: receipts, puts, picks, transfers, and adjustments using RF scanner or terminal\n· Inventory management basics: cycle counting procedure, physical count reconciliation, FIFO stock rotation\n· Shipping documentation: BOL reading and verification, packing list matching, label requirements for common carriers (UPS, FedEx, LTL)\nPhysical requirements:\n· Lift up to 50 lbs unassisted; team lift protocol for heavier items\n· Extended walking, standing, and occasional climbing on ladders or dock plates\n· Work in environments ranging from climate-controlled warehouses to receiving docks with outdoor exposure\n· Safety footwear, safety glasses, and high-visibility vest required in most facilities\nBenefits\nWhy Join CEL Critical Power?\nJoin a Trusted Industry Leader - 42 Years of Excellence\nCEL has been delivering high-quality, bespoke power distribution solutions for over four decades, with products that stand the test of time.\nBe Part of a Global Expansion\nWith CEL launching its first US manufacturing plant, you will have the opportunity to work on international projects and documentation standards while collaborating with colleagues across North America.\nCollaborate with World-Class Engineers, Vendors & Industry Experts\nYou’ll work alongside leading engineers, project managers, document controllers, product managers, and global vendors, ensuring excellence and operational success across CEL’s international teams.\nShape the Future of CEL - Critical Power\nThis is more than just an operator role-it’s an opportunity to help forge the future of CEL and our expansion across the US.\nCompetitive Salary, Benefits & Career Growth\nWe offer structured career development, professional training, and leadership opportunities, ensuring long-term career progression.\nEqual Opportunity Employer\nCEL Critical Power is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
