Jose Zavala
@josezavala
Hands-on logistics and safety-focused worker with strong customer service and forklift operations.
What I'm looking for
I bring a practical, service-first mindset built across delivery, security, and on-site support roles. I deliver automotive parts accurately and quickly, verify invoices and destinations, and help keep urgent orders moving while maintaining smooth customer communication.
I’ve also supported controlled environments as a Security Officer, escorting contractors, managing badge access, completing shift reports, and maintaining clear radio communication with control and supervisors. I’m attentive to compliance, documentation, and doing my part to keep teams running on schedule.
In frontline customer-facing and operational roles, I’ve driven daily outcomes through sales, food service support, cash handling, and clean, safe work practices. Today, I operate forklifts to load and deliver materials and assist on job sites, combining reliability, teamwork, and problem-solving in demanding conditions.
