sit down counterbalance - cross dock.

$22 - $23 per hour

Randstad

Are you the kind of forklift operator who knows exactly how LTL freight needs to sit on a trailer? We’re looking for a skilled Cross Dock Operator who thrives on independence to run the floor for a major transportation hub in SE Calgary.

We need a pro on the Sit-Down Counterbalance who doesn't need to be micromanaged. You’ll be hustling freight, perfectly balancing trailer weights, and keeping the dock flowing smoothly. In return, we’re offering $22.00 to $23.00 an hour and a steady Monday-to-Friday afternoon shift (2:00 PM to 10:30 PM). Skip the morning traffic, keep your weekends free, and work where your freight skills are actually respected. If you have the valid ticket and the cross-dock hustle, we want you on the team.

Advantages
$22.00 – $23.00 per hour with consistent weekly pay
Monday to Friday, 2:00 PM to 10:30 PM. Keep your weekends free!
Thorough onboarding provided to ensure you are completely set up for success.
Convenient Southeast Calgary location with free on-site parking
Opportunity to work in a dynamic, high-impact cross-dock environment.
Stable, long-term opportunity with Randstad's growing team.

Responsibilities

Safely operate a Sit-Down Counterbalance forklift to move LTL freight across the dock.
Load and unload various types of trailers, ensuring weight distribution is balanced.
Work independently to prioritize shipments based on departure times.
Scan and track freight using handheld devices to maintain 100% inventory accuracy.
Identify and report any damaged goods before they are loaded for transport.
Maintain a clean and organized dock floor to ensure a safe transition for the morning crew

Qualifications
Valid Forklift Ticket/Certification (Required).
Must be available for afternoon training before moving to the regular night shift.
1–2 years of experience operating a Sit-Down Counterbalance forklift.
Previous experience with LTL (Less Than Truckload) freight is a major asset.
Must have CSA-approved steel-toed boots and high-visibility gear.

Summary
Ready to own the afternoon shift? We are looking for a true freight professional who takes safety and efficiency seriously. We are moving quickly to fill this critical spot on our transportation team!
