2nd Shift Forklift Operator

H&O Distribution
Fairfield, OH Full Time
POSTED ON 10/12/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 2/9/2027

Are you the person who stays until the job is done right? Fixes a pallet out of place without being told?

At H&O Distribution, we don’t just hire operators; we hire teammates. We are looking for a dependable, high-energy Forklift Professional to join our 2nd Shift team—someone who takes pride in their work and is always ready to lend a hand to a teammate.

The H&O Advantage: Stability You Can Count On

Since 1959, the Osborne family has put people first. While others are cutting back, we are growing and investing in our team.

  • Day 1 Peace of Mind: We provide Employer Contribution Medical, FREE Vision, and a FREE $50,000 Life Insurance policy.
  • Fast-Track PTO: Earn 5 days of PTO after just 90 days, and an additional 3 days after 6 months.
  • Growth You Can See: Starting at $20.50/hr, with annual performance reviews and pay-increase opportunities.

The Mission (Monday to Friday 4:00PM - 12:30AM PLUS Overtime)

This is a high-impact, 3PL environment where boredom doesn't exist. As a core member of our 2nd Shift, you will:

  • Master the Floor: Operate Stand-up forklifts with precision.
  • Own the Workflow: Load/unload trucks and manage inventory using our WMS and RF Scanners.
  • Be the "Glue": We are looking for the "Step-Up" personality—the person who notices when a teammate is slammed and jumps in to help without being asked.
  • Solve Problems: Work as a unit to hit daily goals and ensure our customers get exactly what they need, when they need it.

What You Bring to the Team

  • The Experience: At least 2 years of solid experience on Stand-up forklifts. 3PL or Inventory experience is preferred.
  • The Stamina: You’re comfortable on your feet and capable of lifting up to 50lbs throughout the shift - bag stacking may be required from time to time.
  • The Reliability: You’re looking for a "home," not just a job. You show up for your team and your customers every day.
  • The Clean Record: You can successfully pass a pre-employment background check and drug screen (including marijuana).

Our Culture

H&O Distribution is a family-owned 3PL that specializes in being a valuable partner to our clients. We treat our warehouse like an ecosystem—everyone's role is vital. If you have a strong work ethic and want to be part of a company that values transparency and team-based success, we want to meet you.
