About VersaDesk

VersaDesk is a Los Angeles-based, American-made ergonomic workstation brand with 25+ years of manufacturing history. We design and build standing desks, converters, drafting tables, cubicles, and workspace accessories for corporate, education, healthcare, and government customers. Our belief is simple: workspaces should adapt to people. We're looking for a Director of Lifecycle & Retention Marketing to own the customer lifecycle from first purchase through repeat business, expansion, and referral — across both our DTC storefront and our B2B/institutional sales motion.

The Role

An Assembly & Packaging Associate is responsible for preparing, inspecting, and securely packaging large  items—such as desks, chairs, cubicle panels, etc—for safe warehouse storage and transit. They ensure all customer orders are complete, damage-free, and labeled correctly according to shipping specifications.

Key Responsibilities

  • Wrap and cushion items : Protect wood, laminate, glass, and metal surfaces using foam wrap, bubble wrap, corner pads, and shrink wrap. 
  • Assemble custom cartons : Construct structural cardboard boxes and wooden pallets to size for complex furniture components. 
  • Conduct quality checks : Inspect finished pieces for surface scratches, missing hardware, or structural defects prior to sealing. 
  • Verify pick slips : Cross-reference physical product counts, hardware kits, and serial numbers against the order documentation. 
  • Affix shipping labels : Place barcodes, handling stamps (like "Fragile" or "This Side Up"), and invoices prominently on the exterior container. 
  • Load and secure inventory : Move wrapped items using heavy warehouse equipment and stack them safely onto delivery trucks to prevent shifting. 
  • Keep an orderly workspace : Clear out cardboard debris, organize packing materials, and maintain a hazard-free staging floor.
 

Required Skills & Qualifications

  • Education : High school diploma or GED equivalent 
  • Tool proficiency : Experience using manual and pneumatic tools like industrial tape guns, staple machines, box cutters, and shrink-wrap dispensers.
  • Equipment operation : Basic knowledge or certification in operating material handling tools such as pallet jacks or dollies.
  • High attention to detail : Precision to match complicated part numbers and ensure hardware kits are entirely complete.
  • Adaptable schedule : Flexibility to work changing warehouse shifts, including early mornings, overtime, or occasional weekends.
 

Physical Requirements

  • Ability to work in a manufacturing environment with varying temperatures and noise levels.
  • Ability to stand and walk for up to 8 hours daily and lift up to 50 lbs consistently without assistance.
  • Ability to stand for long shifts, bend, twist, and repetitively lift heavy office furniture weighing up to 50 lbs.
