WAREHOUSE ASSOCIATE

NILES  | Nashville, TN

NILES is a design-build firm specializing in high-performance recording environments. We build technically precise, creatively inspiring spaces — and that same standard applies behind the scenes. We’re hiring a Warehouse ASSOCIATE  to own the heartbeat of our operations: inventory, organization, cleanliness, and material flow between headquarters, vehicles, and job sites.

This role is critical. You’ll be the connective tissue between the various departments of the organization — ensuring everything is where it should be, when it should be, and logged correctly.

ROLE OVERVIEW

The Warehouse Associate is responsible for:

• Maintaining a clean, professional, and efficient HQ environment
• Receiving, staging, and returns
• Inventory accuracy and movement
• Warehouse, office, and vehicle upkeep
• Supporting field crews with emergency materials

You’ll work closely with the COO, Field Crew, Furniture & Fabrication, and Audio Integration teams to keep projects moving without friction.

Who This Role Is For

This role is ideal for someone early in their career who’s hungry to learn, likes to stay moving, and takes pride in keeping things dialed. You’ll be on your feet, lifting, organizing, driving between HQ and job sites, and helping keep the entire operation flowing smoothly. If you’re the type of person who notices what needs to be done next — and just does it — you’ll thrive in this role.

We’re looking for someone:

• Organized and detail-oriented.
• Comfortable working independently and taking ownership
• Eager to learn inventory systems,, fabrication, and construction.
• Positive attitude,, reliable, and comfortable with physical, hands-on work

This is a great position for someone who wants responsibility early in their career, exposure to multiple trades, and a clear path to growth.

Compensation Details

• $18-22/hour, starting pay depending on experience.
• Opportunity for increases based on performance, reliability, and role ownership
• PTO package
• Consistent hours and predictable schedule
• Hands-on experience in a high-end design/build environment

CORE RESPONSIBILITIES

Inventory & Materials 

• Maintain accurate inventory workflow
• Receive, verify, and log all incoming materials (cross-reference packing slips, flag discrepancies)
• Stage materials in proper locations
• Process returns (vendor drop-offs, scheduled pickups, restocking) and repairs
• Maintain organized shelving, labeled storage, and clean staging zones

Warehouse & HQ Operations (Daily / Weekly)

• Check HQ for incoming packages and deliveries
• Empty trash and replace bags as needed
• Sweep, vacuum, and mop work areas as needed
• Clean bathrooms (office, warehouse, shop) on weekly schedule
• Clean office areas (conference table, desks, coffee bar)
• Change out HVAC air filters on scheduled intervals
• Maintain an organized, professional HQ environment

Job Site & Field Support

• Coordinate with COO to deliver emergency materials to job sites as needed
• During delivery runs, assist with:
• Emptying jobsite trash bins
• Checking/replacing HVAC filters
• Organizing and cleaning workstations and tool stations
• Support jobsite staging and deep cleans as scheduled

Vehicles & Equipment

• Clean vehicles (interior trash removal, sweeping/vacuuming, wiping surfaces)
• Organize vehicles so each is stocked with the correct tools and first-aid kits
• Perform basic vehicle maintenance checks (fluids, tires)
• Coordinate service scheduling with vendors (e.g., tire service)
• Wash vehicle exteriors on scheduled intervals
• Drop off and pick up tool repairs as needed

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

• Highly organized, detail-obsessed, and process-driven
• Able to self-direct, prioritize, and keep momentum moving
• Strong communication skills with team members and leadership
• Comfortable working within systems with consistency and excellence
• Experience with inventory systems
• Physically capable of lifting, moving, and staging materials
• Valid driver’s license and clean driving record

Construction knowledge, warehouse, fabrication, or trades experience is helpful.

WHY THIS ROLE MATTERS

At NILES, precision matters — not just in the studios we build, but in the systems that support them. The Warehouse Associate ensures that our crews show up prepared, our jobs stay on track, and our operation runs with clarity instead of chaos.

If you take pride in order, ownership, and building systems that work — this role was built for you.
