Job Description

Good factory hands stay for years, and this snack food factory in Kempton Park trains from day one. Expect to be trusted with real work from your first week.

The site is in Kempton Park; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying.

What your day looks like

  • Feed raw material or empty packaging into the machine at the start of the line
  • Help the machine operator clear jams and reload hoppers
  • Record batch codes and counts on the hourly production sheet
  • Wear hairnets, beard covers and gloves in food-safe zones
  • Pack finished product into cases and stack them by batch number
  • Change over packaging film and labels when the line switches product

What you need

  • Neat, reliable and on time for shift start
  • Able to stand for a full shift in a noisy, warm area
  • Medically fit; some food plants ask for a medical check
  • You follow hygiene rules without being reminded

Nice if you have

  • A food handler or basic HACCP awareness certificate
  • Some basic first-aid training

What you get

  • Company transport on some night shifts
  • Free PPE, overalls and hairnets
  • Night-shift allowance on top of basic pay

Applying, step by step

  1. Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
  2. Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: CV listing any factory or packing work, even short-term plus your latest school results or matric certificate.
  3. Fill in the short form below with your name and a phone number you actually answer.
  4. If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 10 working days, usually by phone.

Your application joins the How2Apply talent pool for this role, and we put shortlisted people forward to employers hiring in and around Kempton Park.

Applying is free. Nobody from How2Apply will ever ask you to pay for anything to get this job.

Tips to get shortlisted

  • Do not wear jewellery or long nails to the interview if it is on site. Food factories notice and it counts.
  • Name the products you worked on before, like "biscuit line" or "juice bottling". Factory recruiters read that faster than a job title.
