Krispy Kreme's Shipping Specialist will work in Krispy Kreme's equipment manufacturing location that produces our doughnut-making equipment. The team members you'll join are experts at packing and shipping parts and equipment to Krispy Kreme locations all around the world.

HERE'S A TASTE OF WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING

Your primary responsibility as a shipping specialist includes fulfilling order requests by picking and shipping equipment and service part orders.

You'll use an inventory system, Oracle, to conduct inventory maintenance, receive goods and enter them into Oracle, and finally physically inventory product in the correct location.

Additional duties include pressure washing used equipment for refurbishments and providing support where needed to meet deadlines.

There might be other duties too, as the world of doughnut making is ever-changing!

Being a shipping specialist is an active role that requires you to stand most of the day. You'll also reach, bend, kneel, carry, grasp, lift, climb, twist, walk, and sit. Being able to lift a decent amount of weight is required too, up to 60 pounds.

Since you will be working in the Equipment manufacturing location, you will be working alongside sheet metal workers, laser operators and engineers. Of course, there will be Personal Protection Equipment (PPE) available for you to use.

Common equipment you'll use are forklifts, counterbalance trucks, reach trucks, pallet-jacks, cherry pickers, and a good ole' fashion ladder or

stepstool to locate and pick products.
