About Us
Custom Print Graphics (CPG) is a large-volume contract screen printing and embroidery shop serving some of the nation's most recognized brands. We're growing fast, scaling our systems to meet high demand, and delivering consistent, high-quality decorated apparel — on time, every time.
The Role
We're hiring a Shipping & Receiving Manager to own all inbound and outbound logistics in our high-volume production facility. You'll make sure materials arrive, get checked in, and reach the right production teams on schedule — and that every finished order ships accurately and on time.
What You'll Do
- Inbound
- Receive and check in all incoming goods against purchase orders; flag shortages, damages, and discrepancies immediately
- Organize and stage materials so screen printing, embroidery, and heat press teams have what they need, when they need it
- Build and maintain tracking systems for materials from arrival through production handoff
- Outbound
- Oversee packing, labeling, and shipping of all completed orders — accuracy and presentation matter
- Cook with carriers (UPS, FedEx, freight) on pickups, issue resolution, and cost management
- Ensure every shipment meets customer expectations and ships on schedule
- Systems & Process
- Develop and refine SOPs for receiving, inventory management, staging, and fulfillment
- Cook with production managers to align logistics with daily and weekly production schedules
- Maintain clean, organized warehouse and storage areas that support efficient workflow
- Track performance and identify bottlenecks before they become problems
- People
- Train and supervise shipping/receiving staff on procedures and best practices
- Communicate clearly across departments — production, sales, and leadership all rely on logistics running smoothly
What We're Looking For
- 1+ years in shipping & receiving, warehouse operations, or logistics management (decorated apparel or printing industry experience is a strong plus)
- Strong organizational skills and a sharp eye for detail - you catch what others miss
- Experience creating or improving SOPs and operational workflows
- Familiarity with shop management or order tracking systems - Shipstation experience highly valued
- Clear communicator who can coordinate across production, sales, and leadership teams
- Comfortable in a fast-paced, high-volume environment where priorities shift daily
- Physically able to lift and move boxes of apparel and supplies as needed
Benefits
