About the Role

EmployBridge is seeking a Bilingual Forklift Operator (English/Spanish required) for storage and distribution facility that handles plastic pellets used in manufacturing. This is not a production environment – the facility receives rail cars and trucks loaded with small plastic pellets, transfers them into hoppers, and fills customer-ready containers for shipment. 

This is a hands-on, fast-paced role where associates rotate through all positions, including forklift operation, material handling, labeling, and general warehouse tasks.

• Position pallets under the hopper and fill boxes to precise weight requirements (accuracy very important)

• Seal, label, and prepare filled containers for storage or shipment

Forklift Operation

• Operate a sit-down propane forklift to move, store, and pallets
• Transport filled containers to designated inventory locations
• Support shipping/receiving activities as needed

Warehouse Operations

• Use RF scanners for inventory tracking
• Apply labels and maintain accurate documentation
• Assist with shipping and receiving paperwork
• Perform general warehouse duties - this is not a position where you stay on the forklift all day

Requirements

• Bilingual (English/Spanish) required
• 1+ year of forklift experience (sit down propane required)
• Ability to lift, bend, and perform physical tasks throughout the shift
• Comfortable rotating between forklift operation and manual labor
• Strong attention to detail - must meet strict weight accuracy standards
• Experience with RF scanners a plus
• Reliable transportation to North Charlotte

Why this Role?

• Steady day shift schedule
• Consistent workflow - no manufacturing, no assembly lines
• Cross-trained environment where everyday is different
• Opportunity to grow within a stable distribution operation
