Warehouse Shipping & Receiving Technician

The Warehouse Shipping & Receiving Technician is responsible for the accurate and efficient movement of goods through LFA Machines' warehouse. This includes receiving inbound shipments, verifying stock, picking and packing outgoing orders, and maintaining the integrity of our inventory management system. The role is central to ensuring that customers receive their orders correctly and on time.

Full in-house training is provided. We welcome candidates with a strong work ethic, attention to detail, and a practical hands-on attitude — prior warehouse experience is an advantage but not essential.
