- Ensure all equipment is properly cleaned, maintained, and stored.
- Assist with warehouse duties, including organizing inventory and maintaining a clean and safe workspace.
- Work collaboratively with the team to ensure efficient and timely completion of projects.
- Adhere to all company safety policies and procedures.
Required Qualifications:
