Warehouse Manager

About the role

The Warehouse Manager at Bright Event Rentals isn't a behind-the-desk role. It's a hands-on leadership position for someone who thrives in a physical, fast-moving environment and takes real pride in running a tight operation. You'll lead a team of warehouse team members, own the condition and readiness of our rental inventory, and make sure every truck leaves on time and every item comes back accounted for.

Responsibilities

• Direct the daily operations of the warehouse, including inbound and outbound equipment flow, staging, and yard organization.
• Lead, schedule, and develop a team of warehouse team members, setting expectations, coaching performance, and building accountability into the culture.
• Ensure all rental inventory is inspected, cleaned, repaired, and event-ready at all times.
• Maintain a safe, organized, and efficiently run warehouse environment that meets company standards.
• Oversee crew scheduling and timekeeping to match operational demands, including peak event periods.
• Collaborate with operations and logistics leadership to align warehouse output with delivery schedules and event timelines.
• Monitor inventory levels and equipment condition; escalate maintenance needs and flag discrepancies early.
• Enforce safety protocols and company policies, and model the behavior you expect from your team.
• Identify inefficiencies and drive continuous improvement across warehouse processes and workflows.
• Handle team performance matters directly, including coaching conversations, corrective action, and recognition.

Requirements

• Proven experience leading warehouse, logistics, or operations teams in a fast-paced environment.
• Strong leadership instincts: you know how to motivate people, develop talent, and hold a team accountable.
• A track record of managing competing priorities, shifting schedules, and meeting tight deadlines without losing your footing.
• Clear, confident communication and the ability to work cross-functionally across departments.
• Comfortable with basic computer tools including Outlook and Excel.
• An organized, detail-oriented mindset with a solutions-first approach.
• Flexibility to work weekends and extended hours during peak event periods; this business doesn't slow down, and neither do you.
• A valid driver's license with a clean record that meets company standards.
• Physical ability to stand, walk, and move throughout the warehouse for extended periods, and lift up to 50 lbs.
• Bilingual in English and Spanish strongly preferred; it's a meaningful advantage in this market.
