Fine Furniture Packaging and Logistics Associate

Guard the craft. Ship it right the first time.

Fargo Woodworks creates bespoke pieces for executive suites, boardrooms, and premium hospitality spaces. We’re seeking a detail-obsessed Packaging and Logistics Associate to ensure every finished item leaves our shop and arrives exactly as intended.

Why this role matters

You are the final checkpoint between masterful craftsmanship and a client’s space. Your quality decisions prevent damage, delays, and claims.

Your impact (responsibilities)

• Assemble and verify each piece; nothing is wrapped until it passes inspection
• Clean surfaces thoroughly to keep dust and debris out of protective layers
• Capture photos against a defined checklist to document condition for claims protection
• Wrap and pad parts with care—extra foam on corners, edges, and finished areas
• Fabricate tight, durable crates that withstand real-world handling and prevent movement
• Apply labels and stage outbound loads (fragile, do not stack, no‑stack cones)
• Use downtime to pre-cut foam, prep crate components, and restock materials

What you’ll need

• Careful hands and respect for one-of-a-kind, high-value furniture
• Reliability and punctuality every single day
• Comfort lifting 50+ lbs and standing for a full shift
• Basic phone/computer skills for photos, labels, and records
• Team-first approach and a clean, organized workspace

Bonus skills (not required)

• Forklift certified, or open to training
• Experience in warehousing, shipping, or crating

Schedule and compensation

• Hours: Monday–Friday, 7:30am–4:00pm; occasional weekend overtime
• Pay: $20/hour starting
• Benefits: Health insurance and paid time off
