Overview
Warehouse Support Associate Jobs in Phoenix, AZ at Oak Hill Brands
WANTED: SOMEONE WHO CAN BUILD THE THING, BOX THE THING, AND SHIP THE THING
Oak Hill Brands | Onsite | Full-Time | $18–$22/hr
(Onsite meaning your hands have to physically be on the products. We have not yet figured out remote assembly.)
Who We Are
Oak Hill Brands makes and sells two categories of things that have no business being in the same building:
Heavy-duty industrial lubrication management equipment. Think enormous, terrifying factory machines that need very specific fluids put into their bowels by very specific means.
Assistive technology, including our Giraffe Bottle — a hands-free hydration system for people with limited upper-body mobility. It is wholesome. It genuinely changes people’s lives. We are very proud of it.
If your first thought was “those two product lines have nothing to do with each other,” you’re correct, and we’ve stopped apologizing for it. We packed up the whole operation, escaped the frozen tundra of Chicago, and relocated to Arizona. We are in build mode, which means the team is small enough that everyone knows what everyone else had for lunch. There are no corporate layers. If a toilet overflows, the CEO grabs a plunger. If you want a job where you can quietly blend into the background like a decorative office fern, keep scrolling.
The Role: Assembler First, Shipper Second, Warehouse Swiss Army Knife Third
The title says “Warehouse Support Associate.” Ignore the beige HR wrapper. Here is the honest breakdown of your day, in priority order:
1. ASSEMBLY — This is the main event
This is where you’ll spend most of your time and it is the reason we’re hiring. You will build our assistive technology products with your own two hands.
- Drinking systems: cutting tube, inserting tube into plastic shell, folding to fit the bag, assembling components into a box, packaging, labeling, storing.
- Wheelchair mounting hardware: assemble plastic part onto other plastic part, tighten screw, do not overtighten screw, we will know.
- Light use of hand tools, powered hand tools, and a table-top drill.
Most components are small. Precision is not a nice-to-have here — a sloppy assembly job means somebody who depends on this product to drink water gets a leaky one. We take that personally, and so should you.
The silver lining: while you won’t be totally isolated in the warehouse, the actual workflow is mostly a solo mission. It’s just you, your bench, and the playlist in your headphones. Wear whatever is comfortable. We only have two requirements: you must be able to hear us if we yell your name, and you can’t let the beats distract you from the precision of the build.
2. SHIPPING & FULFILLMENT — The second most important thing
When you’re not building, you’re getting product out the door.
- Pick and pack orders accurately and efficiently.
- Prepare shipments, print labels, stage freight.
- Make sure the right box goes to the right human on the right day. A grease coupler arriving at a nursing home is a bad day for everyone.
- Meet ship deadlines. The carrier does not care about your feelings and neither does the cutoff time.
3. GENERAL WAREHOUSE SUPPORT — Everything else
- Gather components for assembly, put finished goods on the shelf. Hand carry, hand cart, pallet jack.
- Pull stock, run inventory counts, keep the numbers honest.
- Keep the warehouse organized and clean, because a chaotic warehouse eventually becomes a chaotic company.
- “Other duties as assigned” — the scary part. You’ll do whatever needs doing. The phrase “that’s not my job” has been legally banned from the premises. If the building is besieged by feral desert javelinas, you will be handed a broom and expected to defend the perimeter.
Who You Are
We’re looking for a specific kind of person, and no, it’s not the person with the longest résumé.
- Meticulous. IMPORTANT, and we mean it. You follow instructions exactly as written, catch the part that’s slightly off before it ships, and you don’t eyeball things that are supposed to be measured.
- Reliable. You show up. On time. On the days you said you would. This is the single most common way people fail this job, and it’s completely within your control.
- Self-directed. Nobody is going to stand behind you narrating your tasks. You’ll often be working alone. If you need constant supervision to stay in motion, this will be miserable for everyone.
- Aggressive initiative. You see a problem, you deal with the problem. You don’t wait for someone to notice it and assign it to you.
- Good vibes. You radiate them. If you’re the kind of person who sighs heavily when handed a task, please move along to the next job post.
- Advanced brain function. You can connect dots normal humans miss. For example, you intuitively grasp that industrial lubricant should never, under any circumstances, be shipped inside the Giraffe Bottles.
What You Need
- High school diploma or equivalent.
- The ability to lift 30–50 lbs, stand or sit for long stretches, and function in a warehouse that is not always a crisp 72 degrees.
- Clear communication in English — reading, writing, speaking.
- Basic computer literacy. If you can operate a mouse and don’t think “The Cloud” is a weather phenomenon, we can teach you the rest.
- No prior experience required. We will train the right person. We cannot train a work ethic.
Extra Credit
- Prior assembly, manufacturing, or fulfillment experience.
- Shipping software, label systems, or freight experience.
- NetSuite.
- Comfort with a pallet jack.
Our Philosophy
We don’t care whether you spent the last five years as a corporate accountant, a cruise ship magician, or a professional llama shearer. We care about how your brain works and whether your hands do what your brain tells them to. If you’re careful, steady, fast, and unbothered by a little corporate chaos — apply.
One more thing, and this is the part we’re actually serious about: the products you’ll be building get used by people with physical disabilities to do things most of us never think twice about, like drink a glass of water without asking for help. Every unit you assemble ends up in somebody’s hands. If that lands with you, you’ll be good at this job.
Compensation & Benefits
- $18–$22 per hour, based on experience
- Full-time, 40 hours
- PTO for vacation and sick time
- Health insurance
Next Steps
Apply. Don’t let this one pass you by.
Once you’ve applied, you’ll receive an automated response prompting you to complete a short Predictive Index Behavioral Assessment (5–10 minutes). It’s quick, there are no wrong answers, and it tells us more about how you work than a résumé ever will.
Finalist interviews. Based on your application and assessment, we’ll select finalists to come in, meet the team, and see the workspace.
We’re looking forward to meeting you.
