Forklift Operator, Day Shift

Who We Are

At Babylist, the work our fulfillment teams do reaches millions of families across the country — whether you're on the floor moving product or leading the operation that makes it happen. We're one of the leading platforms for expecting and new families — a $750M business with 10 million customers and eight consecutive years of profitability. Our fulfillment centers are where the mission becomes real, and the people who run them are a core part of how we deliver on it every single day.

Our Ways of Working

Our fulfillment teams work on-site in a fast-paced, team-driven environment where every role — from the floor to leadership — plays a direct part in delivering the Babylist experience to millions of families.

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 Forklift Operator, you're a core part of making that happen. You'll move product accurately and safely across our distribution center, working alongside a team that genuinely looks out for each other. This is a role where skilled, dependable people are valued — and rewarded for it.

The schedule for this role is Monday- Thursday 7:00am - 5:30pm at our Fulfillment Center located in Commercial Point, OH.

Who You Are

• Certified and experienced on multiple lift types — you're comfortable on a Reach Truck, Cherry Picker, Stand-Up Forklift, and Sit-Down Forklift (3+ years on each)
• Safety is non-negotiable for you — you follow protocols because you understand why they exist, not because someone's watching
• Steady and dependable — your team counts on you to show up, stay on task, and keep things moving even when volume spikes
• Adaptable across zones and tasks — shifting priorities don't throw you; you read the floor and adjust
• A real teammate — you communicate clearly, flag issues early, and help others hit the shared goal

How You Will Make an Impact

• Move, locate, stack, and count materials throughout the distribution center using the full range of lift equipment
• Load and unload trailers safely — keeping outbound on schedule and inbound organized
• Support both inbound and outbound operations with accurate, timely material handling
• Perform pre-shift equipment inspections and flag maintenance needs before they become problems
• Keep your work area clean, organized, and hazard-free — every shift, not just when audited
• Step in to support other warehouse functions when the floor needs it

Why This Role

• You'll know exactly when your next raise is coming — structured pay increases every 3 months through your first 18 months, no guessing, no waiting to be noticed
• The schedule is consistent and predictable — you can plan your life around this job, not the other way around
• The team here is the real deal — people who take their work seriously, back each other up, and make a long shift feel a lot shorter
• The work is physical and that's the appeal — if you're someone who likes to stay moving and end the day knowing exactly what you accomplished, this is your kind of role

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

About Pay

We pay competitive market rates.

The starting rate for this position is $22.50/hr
