Warehouse Supervisor Cover Letter Example

Re-slotting the 200 fastest-moving products closer to the dock raised picks per hour on my night shift from 92 to 118. I am applying for the Night Shift Supervisor role at Redline Distribution.

Since 2022 I have supervised the night shift at Red Clay Fulfillment: 28 people handling about 9,000 orders a night. Adding a scan check at packing cut mispicks from 1.1% to 0.4%. I train every new hire on our safety rules myself, and no one on the shift has had a lost-time injury in 20 months. Before that I was team lead for a pick team of nine and covered the supervisor during leave.

A first night shift at Redline is the kind of start I want to be part of. Building a shift from nothing means deciding where the fast movers live, setting a safety routine for people new to nights, and agreeing with the day shift how handover works from the first morning, and those are the parts of supervising I have done most. The advert asks the supervisor to work with the day shift on handover, so I would start there. I began as a warehouse associate at Kestrel Point Freight, loading trucks and picking to 90 lines an hour, so the targets I set are ones I have hit myself. The Red Clay site manager named me employee of the quarter twice.

Ask me to run a mock handover with your day supervisor during the interview, and you will see the notes I leave at Red Clay every morning. Four weeks' notice is all I need before starting.
