Join our team at our new Calgary distribution centre. We are looking for dependable, safety-focused Shipper/Receivers who enjoy hands-on work, operating warehouse equipment and contributing to a positive team environment.
This is an equipment-based warehouse position. Team members will regularly operate material handling equipment to receive, move, replenish, pick and ship inventory. Previous MHE experience is preferred; however, equipment-specific training may be provided to qualified candidates.
We have an opening for a Shipper Receiver at our Calgary Plumbing location.

- Safely load and unload trailers.
- Pick, pack and prepare customer and branch orders.
- Move inventory and replenish warehouse locations using material handling equipment.
- Operate forklifts, reach trucks, order pickers and other assigned equipment.
- Accurately complete inventory transactions using RF scanners and warehouse systems.
- Perform pre-use equipment inspections and report safety or maintenance concerns.
- Maintain organized storage locations and support inventory accuracy.
- Follow all warehouse safety, traffic and housekeeping standards.
- Support daily priorities across receiving, replenishment and shipping.
What You Bring
- Previous shipping, receiving, material-handling or warehouse experience.
- Experience operating a forklift, reach truck, order picker or similar equipment is preferred.
- Current MHE certification is an asset but is not required.
- Willingness and ability to complete equipment-specific training and a practical competency assessment.
- A strong commitment to safe work practices.
- Dependability, attention to detail and a positive, team-first approach.
- Ability to lift up to 50 lbs and work in an active, fast-paced warehouse environment.
- Experience using RF scanners or warehouse inventory systems is an asset.
What We Offer
- A starting wage of $22 to $23 per hour, based on experience and qualifications.
- Equipment-specific training and development opportunities.
- The opportunity to join a new distribution centre and help build a strong operating culture.
- A safety-focused, team-oriented work environment.
- Opportunities to learn multiple areas of warehouse operations.
If you have warehouse or MHE experience and take pride in working safely, accurately and productively, we encourage you to apply.
