Logistics Specialist

Description
**The Role**

Let's take a minute and talk about sorting. It's not something one might think about every day, but it's a skill that most have been honing for their entire lives. Think about it. Children sort Skittles, adults sort coins, seniors sort pills, and Logistics Specialists at dbrand sort packages.

Sorting is often done arbitrarily, but sometimes it serves a higher purpose. For some, that might be seeing which Skittle colour is the strongest when you squeeze two together with your fingers (it's green; we checked). For us, it's to ensure that the thousands of packages that flow through our warehouse daily are properly processed and delivered safely to customers around the world.

But wait, there's more. Logistics Specialists at dbrand are the final line of defense between us and our demanding army of cult-like superfans. This means that whether you're double-checking package labelling, making sure our packages remain pristine, or ensuring the successful delivery of a single packing peanut, the ordering process ends with you and the rest of our skillful Logistics Team.

If you're up to the task, keep scrolling. If not, do us both a favour and close the tab. We can get back to work, and you can try proving our Green Skittle Thesis wrong.

**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. If you're someone who's detail-oriented, committed, and excited about our mission, you'll do more than thrive here.

Before you can get the opportunity to join our passionate, dynamic team and create unparalleled customer experiences as part of our Logistics team, you'll need to prove yourself. Let's see if you've got what it takes
