What are the responsibilities and job description for the Shipping & Receiving Clerk position at Winston Industries?
Shift: Full-time, Day Shift (Monday-Friday 8AM– 4:30PM, Sat, Sun off!!!)
Job Overview
The Shipping and Receiving Clerk is responsible for the shipping and receiving and verifying that all materials received are of the specified quality level and added into inventory. This position will also deliver the items to the proper departments or inventory staging location and ensure that all shipments are packaged and labeled properly before arranging shipment.
Outside of the work side, Winston is just a different manufacturing environment. We employ around 200 people, so we are big enough that you won’t be worrying about your paycheck bouncing (they come weekly by the way), but small enough that you’ll be on a first name basis with your coworkers and managers (probably even the CEO). While you are working, there is a good chance that you’ll hear arguing between coworkers on UK vs Louisville, but that’s because the people we work with are like family. We encourage a team atmosphere and like to have fun at work. We need to get the job done, but we also really want to have a place that people like working at. Oh, one last thing…our regular schedule runs Mon-Thurs. So, unless we are swamped and working OT, you can plan to have off Fri-Sun.

- We’re a small enough company where we like to know everyone’s name, but big enough that we get to invest back into the company and our people.
