## Job description

Weekly Pay | 35% Babylist Discount | Paid Holidays | Paid Healthcare Benefits

What the Role Is

At Babylist, we help families prepare for one of the biggest moments of their lives, and our Commercial Point Fulfillment Center is where that promise becomes real. As a Lead Forklift Operator, you're the most experienced person on the equipment and the one others look to for guidance. You'll keep product moving safely and accurately, train new operators, and help the supervisor run the floor. This is a hands-on leadership role: you stay on the equipment and lead from the floor.

The schedule for this role is Friday through Sunday 6:00am - 6:30pm at our Fulfillment Center located in Commercial Point, OH.

## About Pay

At Babylist we believe in competitive starting pay and a clear, structured scale that rewards performance and tenure. You'll always know how your pay grows.

Starting pay for this role is $25.75 per hour.

Shift Differential

- Weekend shift: additional $1.75 per hour

Holidays Observed

The Fulfillment Center is closed on the following days for the weekend shift in 2026:

- Christmas Day
- New Year's Day (2027)

All shifts receive 4 floating holidays in addition to the holidays observed, so you can celebrate what matters to you the most, whenever that may be.

## Who You Are

- Certified and experienced on multiple lift types: Reach Truck, Cherry Picker, Stand-Up Forklift, and Sit-Down Forklift, with 5+ years of hands-on operating experience
- Able to train others on equipment and safety: you've onboarded or coached operators and can explain why a procedure exists, not just what it is
- Safety is non-negotiable, and you hold others to it: you correct unsafe behavior in the moment, respectfully and directly
- Able to run a section of the floor during volume spikes: you prioritize, reassign tasks, and keep outbound on schedule
- Comfortable as the link between operators and supervisors: you raise issues early and describe them accurately
- Steady and dependable: your team counts on you to show up and set the pace

## How You Will Make an Impact

- Move, locate, stack, and count materials across the distribution center using the full range of lift equipment
- Load and unload trailers safely, keeping outbound on schedule and inbound organized
- Train new operators on equipment, safety protocols, and zone procedures
- Lead pre-shift safety huddles and assign operators to zones and tasks
- Complete pre-shift equipment inspections and make sure maintenance needs are flagged
- Spot and correct hazards, and report incidents and near misses to your supervisor
- Support inventory accuracy through cycle counts and location checks
- Escalate staffing, equipment, and volume issues to the supervisor before they affect shipments

Physical Requirements

- Stand and walk for extended periods (up to 10–12 hours per shift) with scheduled breaks
- Walk the floor extensively, averaging 10,000+ steps per day
- Lift and move items up to 20 lbs regularly throughout the shift
- Frequent pushing, pulling, bending, twisting, and repetitive motion
