Shipper

Are you an experienced, safety-minded Shipper looking for a rewarding opportunity in Burnaby, British Columbia? Randstad, a global leader in talent solutions, has partnered with a premier clean-technology manufacturing organization to recruit a dedicated Shipper for their expanding manufacturing & logistics operations. Our specialized recruitment consultants are experts in their fields, committed to connecting skilled professionals with premier careers across Greater Vancouver. In this full-time Shipper role, you will take ownership of outgoing freight within a dynamic, state-of-the-art production facility. While your primary work location is based in Burnaby, flexibility to assist at a nearby Vancouver facility when needed is preferred.

• Maintain real-time inventory records and status updates in the ERP system, investigating discrepancies promptly.
• Requisition packing materials and shipping supplies to maintain adequate operational stock across the facility.
• Keep work areas organized, clean, and fully compliant with manufacturing health, safety, and 5S standards.

Qualifications
• Minimum of 5 years of focused shipping experience in a manufacturing, production, or raw materials environment (pure retail/parcel distribution experience, DOES NOT qualify).
• Valid forklift operator license (sit-down counterbalance or reach truck); in-house re-certification is provided upon hire.
