Material Handler Jobs in Summerville, SC

A Material Handler in the manufacturing industry is responsible for managing the movement, storage, and control of materials within a manufacturing facility.

Certification as a forklift operator may be required, and prior experience in a similar role is often preferred. A person may have roles such as Warehouse Associate, Forklift Operator, or Inventory Clerk before becoming a Material Handler.
