Warehouse Specialist - Seasonal - Phase V Fulfillment - Fort Myers, FL

Phase V Fulfillment is a leading third-party logistics (3PL) provider based in Fort Myers, FL. We partner with e-commerce and wholesale brands to deliver fast, accurate, and scalable fulfillment solutions. Our Warehouse Specialists are a critical tier of our operations team — experienced, versatile contributors who keep the warehouse running at a high level across fulfillment, inventory, and client-facing activities.

Position Overview

The Warehouse Specialist is a mid-level warehouse role designed for experienced associates who have demonstrated accuracy, reliability, and the ability to work independently. Specialists go beyond standard order fulfillment to support the full scope of warehouse operations — including receiving inbound product, managing inventory integrity, processing returns, executing assigned projects, and serving as a point of coordination between the warehouse floor and Account Management or client contacts.

This role requires strong attention to detail, the ability to prioritize across multiple tasks, and a professional approach to cross-functional communication.

This is a seasonal full-time position created to support Phase V Fulfillment during its high-volume season, when order volumes and operational demands increase. Candidates who demonstrate strong performance, reliability, and the ability to contribute effectively to the team may have the opportunity to continue in a permanent position, based on business needs and available opportunities.
