  • Responsibilities

    Logistics Warehouse - Delivery Specialist ($40,000/yr) Elite Austin is a local design company specializing in home staging and furniture rental. We have a collaborative and fun work environment and value work-life balance. Your day ends at 3:30, and our crew does not work on nights, weekends, or holidays. We won't be contacting you after work. Once you clock out for the day, you are done. Paid time off increases with the number of years you work with us, and you are always off in the evenings and weekends. We are a growing company with opportunities to move up, keep building your resume, and increase your income as you take on additional responsibilities. We match your skills, abilities, and interests with the needs of the company, so you are always learning and feel accomplished at the end of each week. We are currently searching for a Logistics team member to add to our energetic and fun team. The ideal candidate has high energy, is extremely reliable, likes to keep their workspace organized, and has a positive attitude. We focus on taking care of our team. Our full-time positions include the following benefits: medical, dental, paid time off, paid holidays, additional paid time off if you are sick, short and long-term disability, parental leave, and a 401k. You must be a self-starter, a good communicator, have a meticulous eye for detail, and love working with a team. We are looking for new team members who are smart, creative, and solution-oriented. People who are looking for a career rather than just a job. Elite Austin is a growing company, and there are opportunities for personal growth depending on your talents, interests, and abilities. The core function of this position involves warehouse activities such as pulling and moving furniture, loading our box trucks, putting away décor items and going out on jobs to help transport furnishings between the warehouse and the homes we stage. This position involves moving furniture and other warehouse projects such as furniture audits. Must be able to lift up to 50 lbs regularly, up to 75 lbs occasionally, and up to 100 lbs rarely. The logistics team is always in motion, and this position entails a fair amount of walking, bending, and lifting. A typical day would involve helping load furniture onto our truck, going out on a route, and then locating, inspecting, and pulling furniture for the next day. Our routes typically cover one install and one move-out per day. We typically have 2 guys on a truck but can occasionally have 3 if we have a particularly large install that day. We make the most of downtime. Our crew is pulling, inspecting, doing audits, and repairing furniture in any downtime. We help our logistics department prepare for the busy weeks ahead, and our logistics team members earn a full 40 hours per week. We are a small business, so every day is a little bit different. We always start and end our days at the warehouse. Our jobs are all over Austin and the surrounding areas, so you will be in a different part of town each day. You may be at a home on Lake Travis one day and in the penthouse at a residential tower downtown the next. We have a great team of intelligent, motivated people from very different backgrounds. Everyone brings different ideas to the table and is always willing to roll up their sleeves and help out. That is what has helped us form such a great team!
