About Capital BBQ

Capital BBQ (BBQing.com) is a proudly family-owned specialty retailer with over 35 years of expertise in premium BBQs, outdoor kitchens, fireplaces, and outdoor living. Our warehouse operations are the backbone of everything we do — getting the right products to the right customers, on time, every time. We’re growing fast and building a team of leaders who want to grow with us.


The Role

As our Warehouse & Logistics Team Lead, you’re the right hand of our Warehouse Manager and the go-to leader on the floor. You’ll supervise and motivate the team, keep operations running efficiently, and step in to own the operation when the Manager is unavailable. This is a visible, hands-on leadership role with a clear path to advancement for the right person.


Key Responsibilities

•        Supervise, coordinate, and train warehouse associates — building a team that takes pride in accuracy, speed, and safety
•        Act as second-in-command to the Warehouse & Logistics Manager, confidently stepping in to lead full operations when required
•        Demonstrate visible, floor-level leadership that sets the standard for the entire team every single shift
•        Enforce strict adherence to all safety policies and procedures — zero shortcuts, zero exceptions
•        Drive inventory accuracy through regular cycle counts, daily activity monitoring, and proactive discrepancy resolution
•        Coordinate shipping schedules and customer deliveries, including FTL, LTL, and small package orders
•        Oversee all order picking, packing, wrapping, labeling, shipping, and receiving processes end-to-end
•        Operate and oversee the safe use of warehouse equipment — forklifts, reach trucks, pallet jacks, and balers
•        Leverage ERP, WMS, and OMS platforms for operational reporting, configuration, and cross-functional coordination
•        Contribute to continuous improvement initiatives that make the operation faster, safer, and smarter
•        Own quality control for all assemblies and local deliveries — establishing checkpoints that ensure every unit is inspected, complete, and
         meets Capital BBQ’s standards before it reaches a customer’s home
•        Enforce quality standards across all inbound and outbound shipments — verifying accuracy, condition, and documentation at every                   stage of the receiving and fulfillment process

Qualifications & Requirements
Required:

•        Forklift certification and hands-on operating experience (required)
•        Previous warehouse leadership, team lead, or senior associate experience
•        Proven ability to supervise, train, and motivate a warehouse team
•        Hands-on experience coordinating FTL, LTL, and small package shipments
•        Working knowledge of ERP, WMS, OMS, and rate-shopper platforms — including configuration and reporting
•        Strong understanding of shipping, receiving, and inventory management best practices
•        Ability to lift 50 lbs. safely

Strong Assets:

•        Proactive, solutions-focused mindset with the ability to stay calm and decisive under pressure
•        Strong communication and organizational skills — you keep people informed and operations aligned
•        A natural instinct to lead and a genuine desire to grow into higher leadership responsibility

What We Offer

•        Competitive wage, commensurate with experience
•        Group benefits after 3 months
•        Employee merchandise discount on premium BBQ and outdoor living products
•        Ongoing training and professional development
•        A clear and supported path to advancement within Capital BBQ
•        A family-owned, entrepreneurial culture where your leadership makes a visible difference every day
