Lead with Purpose. Continue Your Mission.

At ShipMonk, we know great leaders come from many backgrounds — and military service is one of them.

If you've supervised teams, led missions, maintained accountability for people or equipment, coordinated logistics, or made decisions in fast-moving environments, you've already developed many of the skills we're looking for in an Operations Supervisor.

Whether you're transitioning from active duty or looking for your next civilian leadership opportunity, ShipMonk offers a fast-paced environment where ownership, teamwork, accountability, and execution drive success.

Why military leaders thrive here

Those same skills are essential in our fulfillment operations.

  • A team of approximately 25–30 associates to lead and develop
  • Clear operational objectives and measurable KPIs
  • Data-driven decision making

  • Continuous improvement and innovation
  • An environment that values accountability and ownership
  • Opportunities to continue growing as the company grows

  • Lead, coach, mentor, and develop approximately 25–30 warehouse associates

  • Ability to interpret data and use metrics to improve performance
  • Flexibility to work days, nights, weekends, holidays, or overtime based on business needs
  • Ability to stand for extended periods and lift up to 50 lbs.
