Within 18 months I was promoted to full operations manager. The internal track at UPS moves faster than any warehouse job environment I have ever seen — if you perform, they reward you quickly." - Current Operations Manager, Former Warehouse Supervisor, Phoenix, AZ.

Role Overview & Responsibilities

As a UPS Warehouse Supervisor, you lead a team of 15 to 40 hourly associates through a sort shift inside our package center, managing productivity, safety compliance, and associate development simultaneously while holding your area to strict throughput standards.

• Safety Culture Enforcement: Audit your area constantly for unsafe conditions, equipment misuse, and method compliance failures, correcting behavior immediately and documenting safety observations per UPS compliance policy.
• Associate Performance Development: Deliver structured performance coaching to hourly associates, documenting attendance and productivity conversations in UPS's HR system and escalating progressive discipline situations to the Operations Manager promptly.
