Lowe's Warehouse And Distribution Center Jobs

Many are envious of those that work for Lowe's. And what is not to be envious about? Lowe's is a company known for its stable work environment, competitive pay, and excellent benefits packages. What a shame the number of opportunities available for working in a Lowe's retail store is limited.

Regardless of the name change, positions are potentially available to an interested job seeker. Working at a Lowe's warehouse may prove to be a great career move.

Yet, even though it is possible to apply online for such a position, many do not even throw their proverbial hat in the ring and apply. Why is this so? Mainly, they do not believe that they are actually qualified for such a position. Such an assessment is an unfortunate one because the truth of the matter is they likely ARE qualified. It is just that their perception of what constitutes warehouse work is likely limited.

Is it really difficult to work in a warehouse? The answer to this question depends upon the type of job you are performing. If you have the appropriate experience for the jobs that are offered in the warehouse, the odds are likely you can handle the tasks. There is, however, a common misconception that arises when discussing the subject of working in warehouse/distribution center: you only need to have skills with manual labor. This is not an accurate assessment because there is a wide range of diversity amidst the many different jobs available at a distribution center.

There are two prime categories in which job categories fall under: distribution management and team members. The former would obviously be supervisory personnel and the latter would be the many different employees that round out the various responsibilities needed to effectively operate the warehouse.

Common Distribution And Warehouse Management Sectors

• Human Resources
• Maintenance
• Transportation.
• Operations

Obviously, not everyone that works in one of these sectors is a manager. There are all manner of support and administrative positions which would entail the staff that works under management professionals. For those looking to expand their career potential with Lowe's, distribution management may be the best area to look towards.

The team member positions will be those traditional manual labor warehouse positions that most are commonly aware of. These jobs are not always easy to do but those willing to put the effort into such work will find a rewarding career ahead of them. Well, the career will be rewarding if it is a career with Lowe's.
