JOB DESCRIPTION
So, what's the job? Some call it Order Selector, but we like to say you're an Industrial Athlete. You know how in sports, players go all out for a short time? Like how a football player busts it out for four quarters? Well, you, our Industrial Athlete, keep that energy going for a solid 8 hours, three days a week.
As our star player, you'll be handling about 1,500 cases every shift. And these aren't feather-light, either; they're anywhere from 30 to a hefty 72 pounds.

It might sound like the same play over and over, but it's all about challenging yourself and upping your game.
About the hours? Well, this is a part-time role, the schedule is 6pm to 2:30am on Sunday, Thursday and Friday. Due to the nature of the business, you will be required to work on stat holidays some shifts with additional stat pay or time in lieu of. It's a different kind of schedule, but hey, it might be right up your alley. The pay is pretty sweet, and the better you work – fast, safe, and on-point – the more you can make. The starting hourly wage is $31.66 per hour with additional increases every year. A $1.50 per hour afternoon and night shift premium and an additional $1.00 per hour freezer premium is also given if working in that particular area.
