Shipping supervisors spend much of their workday in a warehouse and are employed in fields such as retail, food and farming equipment. They must have a thorough understanding of the company's needs and look for the best deals on services and merchandise. Shipping supervisors often made recommendations to management on products that might be beneficial to their company. They should be keen negotiators, considering they often bargain with vendors and merchandisers on costs.

 
Skills
Shipping supervisors need to be organized, driven, analytic and flexible. They should be a capable problem-solver and possess sound verbal and written communication skills. They also likely need to be proficient in math, and may need stamina and strength to lift merchandise in the warehouse. Most shipping supervisors also need to feel comfortable delegating and scheduling workers.
