Move For Hunger is seeking a part-time Shipping and Receiving Clerk for up to 28 hours per week to work at our office/warehouse in Neptune City, NJ. This position is not eligible for remote/telework. This position requires the ability to lift up to 40 pounds and will report to the Operations Specialist and COO. We are looking for an energetic and meticulous Shipping & Receiving Clerk to manage the heart of our operations—our warehouse—and ensure we can deliver hope to those facing food insecurity. As our Shipping & Receiving Clerk, you are the custodian of our physical impact. You aren’t just moving boxes; you are managing the critical infrastructure that allows our programs to scale. We are looking for a precision-oriented professional who views a warehouse not as a storage space, but as a high-efficiency logistics hub. You will manage the flow of goods, maintain impeccable inventory records, and ensure our special event and Welcome Kit materials are ready to go. You will also have the opportunity to guide volunteers and support our mission in a hands-on environment.

Requirements

Professional Experience: Prior experience in shipping, receiving, inventory management, or warehouse operations is preferred. You understand the rhythm of a loading dock and the logic of a stockroom.
Technical Proficiency: Skilled in Microsoft Office (Excel/Outlook); experience with Salesforce or a CRM is a significant bonus. You are comfortable navigating digital tools to ensure data matches physical reality.
Logistical Precision: High-level attention to detail, organization, and follow-through. You don't just start a task; you see it through to completion and verify the results.
Communication: Effective written and verbal communication skills. You can coordinate clearly with carriers, update leadership, and guide volunteers with ease.
Self-Governance: A self-starter who understands that shipping deadlines represent real-world impact. You thrive in a role where you own your space and your outcomes.
