Hello Team,

 

A warehouse manager works in the field of logistics and supply chain movement organizing the flow of inbound and outbound traffic in a warehouse. The warehouse manager may be responsible for training employees, maintaining open lines of communication with vendors and transportation companies, and ensuring a safe work environment. This position is somewhat unique in that it combines both supervisory and manual labor elements; a warehouse manager could be training an employee or setting a schedule one minute and off-loading a truck the next.

Education

While some jobs are obtainable with only a high school diploma or its equivalent, it would be greatly beneficial for you to enroll in at least a certificate program; here, you could learn how to create an efficient layout of the available floor space, how to assign roles and responsibilities, and how to manage inventory. Some warehouse management careers require you to have an associate's degree or a bachelor's degree in logistics or a related field. If you do choose to pursue a bachelor's degree, some of the classes you could expect to take include distribution, material and inventory management, and logistics.

Previous Experience

Most warehouse management jobs require you to have several years of experience before being considered for the position. As such, your chances of landing a job as a warehouse manager would increase if you have some previous experience working in lower-level positions in a warehouse environment.

Other Forms of Training

 

Being a warehouse manager is often a hands-on managerial position. It would greatly benefit your skill set by having the knowledge and training to operate pallet jacks, forklifts and other pieces of warehousing equipment. Many positions in the field rely on computers to track and plan the distribution of materials. You should also be able to quickly learn and adapt to any company-specific software you may encounter. As a warehouse manager, you may be asked to acquire training on safety procedures and to familiarize yourself with any local regulations concerning the workplace and its flow of traffic.
