Inventory Specialist (6 Month Contract)

Employment Type: Full Time

Location: Mississauga

Compensation: $19.25 / hour

Description
The Role


When you read the words "Inventory Specialist" you probably imagined a person absentmindedly stocking fifty-or-so shelves with factory-fresh merchandise. This isn't that kind of job. If that's what you're after, save us all some time and close this tab.

If managing inventory was a sport, working at dbrand would be the Olympics. Our warehouse contains nearly twenty thousand individual SKUs. You know their locations like the back of your hand. As our in-house production lines churn out merchandise, you rise to the challenge of putting it in the right place. Other companies would crumble beneath the weight of our bins, but you succeed where others have failed. In this hypothetical Olympic sport, there are no gold medals - every last member of the team is a winner. Your reward? Aside from the satisfaction of blowing every benchmark out of the water, you get to revel in the gratitude and recognition from our millions-strong cult of customers. When our fans receive their packages and can't contain their excitement as they tweet, post on Instagram, or submit to Reddit, that experience only happens because our bins were stocked with the right product in the right place... and you were the one who put it there.

Does the above paragraph describe you? Of course not. You don't work here... yet. We can change that. Right now, you're just a prospective hire who ideally possesses prior inventory experience. In truth, that's mostly irrelevant. What we care about is who you'll be, when given the tools, knowledge, and agency that will enable you to succeed. We need motivated, adaptable, and organized individuals who are committed to excellence, so that we can mold them into the Inventory Specialists of tomorrow. If that's not you, here's a second opportunity to close this tab. If you're still with us... maybe the previous paragraph describes you after all.

The Environment

At dbrand, expect a clean, modern, well-lit warehouse with desks, chairs, and rows of inventory bins. The warehouse floor? You could eat off it. Should you? Who can say? We're not scientists. Instead, we're a team who works hard and plays hard. There's nothing we're more committed to than ongoing growth... other than unparalleled product quality and customer experience.

What's in it for you? Well, unlike most companies, we actually care about the work we're doing. Our customers deserve no less than the absolute best. At dbrand, you have the opportunity to create once-in-a-lifetime purchase experiences for them.
