SHIPPING AND RECEIVING ASSOCIATE

Every Shipment Starts and Ends With You

ABOUT ASAHI BEER USA / OCTOPI BREWING

Founded in 2014 as a Wisconsin contract brewery, Octopi Brewing has spent over a decade brewing and packaging beer, seltzers, RTDs, and sodas for clients nationwide. In 2024, Asahi — brewers of Asahi Super Dry — acquired Octopi, making us the U.S. production home of Super Dry. Today, our 250+ person team of beverage industry pros keeps that same local, quality-first spirit alive at a state-of-the-art facility. Our Warehouse team keeps raw materials, packaging, and finished product moving accurately between our facilities, co-packing partners, and distribution — and Shipping & Receiving Associates keep that inventory picture accurate every step of the way.

• Maintain accurate inventory records in our warehouse management system, including lot control and expiration-date tracking

• Forklift certification, or willingness to become certified

• Further education in Logistics, Supply Chain, Operations, Business, or a related field

BENEFITS & PERKS

• Company-paid life, short-term, and long-term disability insurance

• 401(k) eligible after 3 months, with company match — 100% up to 3%, 50% on the next 2%

• 120 hours of PTO annually, with accrual that grows the longer you're here

• 9 paid holidays (if they fall on your scheduled workday)
