Material Handler - 2nd Shift

About the role

This position is responsible for controlling material flow throughout the production facility to ensure smooth operations by managing the movement of raw materials, scrap, and finished goods. The role operates specifically on the second shift at the Hamptonville, North Carolina location where compensation is established at $16.50 per hour. Daily activities involve direct interaction with production lines to prevent downtime and maintain accurate documentation for all transactions. The hired individual owns the accountability of ensuring all scrap metal is properly emptied into designated compacters and that bundles are clearly tagged with the correct material description. They must load these materials onto the Supplier Managed Inventory (SIM) trailer as required while maintaining strict organization by returning foil racks, cores, and returnable bins to their exact locations on the returnable pad according to the established layout plan. To prevent machine idling, this role requires the prompt delivery of all necessary items to production lines, and personnel must move correct Kanban bins to their assigned spots on the factory floor.
