Outbound Seasonal Operations Associate
Reports To: Outbound Supervisor

About the Role

This is a hands-on, fast-paced role on our warehouse team where you help get customer orders out the door quickly and accurately. You’ll be part of the final step in the fulfillment process, which means what you do directly impacts the customer experience.

On any given day, you might be picking items, packing orders, gift boxing, or preparing shipments. It’s fast-paced, physical work that requires attention to detail and a strong sense of teamwork.

We also see this role as a starting point. If you show reliability, initiative, and a willingness to step up, there’s an opportunity to grow into a coach role, where you’ll help support and guide others on the team.

Success in this role comes down to consistently hitting productivity and accuracy goals, maintaining quality, and being a positive presence on the floor.

This is a seasonal position supporting our Mother’s Day peak. The role is expected to run through the Mother’s Day season, with schedules and duration based on business needs. The role begins April 20th.

This position pays $21 per hour.

We see this role as a potential starting point. Team members who demonstrate strong performance, reliability, and initiative may have opportunities to continue with us or grow into future roles, including coaching positions during our Q4 peak season, based on business needs.

What You’ll Do

  • Pick, pack, gift box, and ship customer orders with care and accuracy
  • Meet daily productivity, quality, and accuracy standards
  • Use warehouse systems to scan and process orders
  • Work with urgency while staying flexible as priorities shift
  • Keep your workspace clean, organized, and safe
  • Follow all safety guidelines and procedures
  • Support your teammates and contribute to a positive work environment
  • Jump in where needed to help the operation run smoothly

What We’re Looking For

  • Experience in a warehouse, fulfillment center, or similar environment is a plus
  • Leadership or team lead experience is a strong bonus, but not required
  • Clear communication and a team-first mindset
  • Ability to stay focused and calm in a fast-moving environment
  • Strong attention to detail and ability to stay organized
  • Able to lift at least 30 lbs
  • Comfortable standing and moving for 7+ hours per shift
  • Reliable, punctual, and ready to work
  • Able to work independently and as part of a team
  • Open availability preferred
  • Basic familiarity with Microsoft Office is a plus

What We Offer

  • A casual, collaborative work environment
  • 40% employee discount on our products

This is a fully onsite role.
We are an Equal Opportunity Employer.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
