Group Coordinator Lead – DHL Supply Chain – Milton, ON

DHL Supply Chain is looking for a Group Coordinator Lead to join their team in Milton, Ontario. As one of the world’s largest logistics companies, DHL offers a workplace where your leadership skills and warehouse expertise can make a real difference in day-to-day operations. This role puts you at the centre of shipping, receiving, picking, and storage activities — keeping things running smoothly on every shift.

This position is a hands-on supervisory role that blends floor-level coordination with team leadership. You’ll be guiding associates, maintaining accurate records, and ensuring the facility runs safely and efficiently. If you thrive in a fast-paced warehouse environment and enjoy mentoring others while keeping operations on track, this could be a strong fit.

About the Role: Group Coordinator Lead

As a Group Coordinator Lead at DHL Supply Chain in Milton, you’ll be responsible for assigning work schedules, training new associates, and monitoring performance across your work group. Your shift runs Tuesday through Saturday, 6am to 2pm, and you’ll be expected to open and/or close the building, ensure compliance with company policies, and communicate work practices clearly to your team. Day-to-day duties also include receiving, loading, put-away, replenishment, and order picking.

A big part of this role is maintaining a safe, secure, and clean facility. You’ll report unsafe conditions to supervisors when they can’t be self-corrected, and you’ll conduct operations in a way that prioritizes both people and productivity. Organizational skills, process orientation, and clear communication are essential to succeeding in this position.

Benefits and Salary

This role pays $23.50 per hour, plus a $1.00 team lead premium.

Full-time associates also receive Paid Time Off (PTO), paid holidays, and an education reimbursement program. DHL has been certified as a Great Place to Work® and Top Employer in Canada for the third consecutive year.
