Remote Freight, Stock, and Material Mover – Flexible Home-Based Role with Competitive Pay

Join a growing logistics team as a Remote Freight, Stock, and Material Mover, where you’ll coordinate shipments, manage inventory, and ensure timely delivery—all from the comfort of your home office. This position offers a stable salary, comprehensive benefits, and the opportunity to develop specialized logistics skills while working on a flexible schedule.

About the Role

As a Remote Freight, Stock, and Material Mover, you will be the vital link between suppliers, warehouses, and end‑customers. Your day‑to‑day responsibilities include tracking inbound and outbound freight, updating inventory systems, preparing shipping documentation, and communicating with carriers to resolve delays. Although the role is remote, you will collaborate closely with on‑site operations teams via video conferencing, chat platforms, and shared dashboards to keep the supply chain moving smoothly.

Key Responsibilities

• Monitor real‑time shipment status using transportation management software.
• Update warehouse management systems with accurate stock levels and location data.
• Generate bills of lading, packing lists, and customs paperwork for domestic and international shipments.
• Coordinate with third‑party carriers to schedule pickups and deliveries, negotiating rates when needed.
• Identify and resolve discrepancies such as damaged goods, missing items, or routing errors.
• Produce weekly performance reports on transit times, cost per mile, and inventory turnover.
• Maintain compliance with OSHA, DOT, and industry‑specific safety regulations.
• Assist in training new remote team members on software tools and standard operating procedures.

Requirements

We are looking for candidates who combine practical logistics knowledge with strong digital communication skills. While prior experience in a warehouse or freight environment is preferred, we welcome motivated individuals who can demonstrate the ability to learn quickly and work independently.

Must‑Have Qualifications

• High school diploma or equivalent; associate’s degree in logistics, supply chain, or a related field is a plus.
• Minimum 1‑2 years of experience handling freight, stock, or material movement (e.g., warehouse associate, shipping clerk, or material handler).
• Proficiency with Microsoft Excel or Google Sheets and familiarity with transportation management systems (TMS) such as SAP TM, Oracle Transportation, or similar.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills for coordinating with carriers, vendors, and internal teams.
• Strong attention to detail and the ability to multitask in a fast‑paced, deadline‑driven environment.
• Reliable high‑speed internet connection and a quiet, dedicated workspace.

Preferred Qualifications

• Certification in Forklift Operation, OSHA 10‑Hour General Industry, or Certified Logistics Associate (CLA).
• Experience with barcode scanning, RFID technology, or automated sorting systems.
• Knowledge of international shipping regulations, Incoterms, and customs documentation.
• Ability to work flexible hours, including occasional early mornings or late evenings to accommodate carrier schedules.

Benefits

We believe that a supportive benefits package is essential for long‑term employee satisfaction and performance. Remote workers receive the same comprehensive offerings as our on‑site staff, tailored to promote work‑life balance and professional growth.

Compensation & Perks

• Salary range: $38,000 – $55,000 USD per year, based on experience and location‑adjusted cost of living.
• Quarterly performance bonuses tied to on‑time delivery metrics and inventory accuracy.
• Health, dental, and vision insurance plans with employer‑paid premiums.
• 401(k) retirement plan with company matching up to 4% of salary.
• Paid time off (PTO) accrual, including vacation, sick leave, and company‑observed holidays.
• Annual stipend for home office equipment (ergonomic chair, monitor, etc.).
• Access to online learning platforms (LinkedIn Learning, Coursera) for upskilling in logistics software and supply chain analytics.
• Employee assistance program offering mental health resources and financial counseling.

How to Succeed in This Role

Thriving as a Remote Freight, Stock, and Material Mover requires a blend of technical know‑how and proactive communication. Start by mastering the core TMS and WMS platforms we use; set aside time each week to explore advanced features like automated reporting and predictive analytics. Build strong relationships with carrier partners by providing clear, timely updates and treating every interaction as a partnership opportunity. Keep a daily log of any discrepancies you encounter and share trends with your supervisor to drive continuous improvement. Finally, leverage the flexibility of remote work to maintain a healthy routine—schedule regular breaks, incorporate light physical activity, and disconnect at the end of your shift to stay sharp and motivated.
