In this role you will be responsible for:

• The COTY Riverside Distribution Center operates two shifts 5-days per week, with possible expansion to three shifts in the future. This would require technicians to work any shift and/or any day of the week, including weekends.  Work on weekends may be as overtime or as part of the technician's normal schedule. Changes in business volume and production requirements can cause the distribution center to occasionally change the length of work shifts or the rotation schedule.  The hours of work vary from 8 to 12 hours per day.  Shift rotations vary from working a single straight shift to working two or three rotating shifts.  Technicians must be willing to rotate and to work any shift.
