Job Description

Are you the kind of leader who first takes the time to understand how things work but naturally spots opportunities to make them work better? Do you see a warehouse operation and think: “Let’s learn the flow, understand the team, and then fine-tune for even better results?” If the answer to these questions is “yes” and if leading people, building strong processes, and driving continuous improvement (without disrupting what’s already working) is your style, this may be the opportunity you’re looking for.

ESC has an exciting direct hire opportunity for a Warehouse Manager to lead a first-shift team in our premier client’s Metro-Milwaukee area distribution center.

What You’ll Be Doing (a.k.a. Your Warehouse Superpowers):

Run the Show

  • Oversee day-to-day operations across shipping, receiving, inventory, safety, and all the moving parts
  • Lead and support a team of warehouse staff
  • Keep things moving smoothly—even when the unexpected hits

Own the Numbers

  • Monitor KPIs like picking accuracy, inventory control, and overall productivity
  • Use data to solve problems, spot trends, and guide decisions before chaos strikes

Optimize Everything

  • Drive continuous improvement in workflows, staffing, safety, and scheduling
  • Keep the facility OSHA-compliant, audit-ready, and impressively tidy

Lead with Intention

  • Build a strong culture rooted in teamwork, accountability, and results
  • Coach and grow your people so they’re ready to level up
  • Give clear direction, feedback, and support—no surprises, just progress

Connect the Dots

  • Partner with internal teams like customer service, purchasing, and sales to keep everything aligned
  • Champion your team while keeping customer satisfaction top of mind
  • Lead cross-functional projects and keep everyone rowing in the same direction

What We’re Looking For:

  • 5+ years of leadership experience in a warehouse/distribution environment (bonus if multi-shift!)
  • Solid understanding of inventory systems, warehouse tech, and ERP platforms
  • A leader who’s hands-on, approachable, and knows how to hold the line
  • Knowledge of OSHA & safety regs (because safety is everyone’s job)
  • Process improvement mindset with a love of metrics and measurable wins
  • Bonus points for high-volume ops experience and talent for coaching future leaders

Why You’ll Love It Here:

  • You’ll have the freedom to lead your way—without micromanagement
  • Every day is a little different, which keeps things fresh
  • You’ll get to develop people and processes (because you care about both)
  • Your voice matters—we want your ideas and leadership
  • You’ll join a company that values results, relationships, and doing things the right way
