Fresh Produce Packer

Night fill, weekends or month-end rush, a neighbourhood supermarket in Alberton needs extra hands. You don't need to be the loudest person in the room, just the one others can count on.

This post is Alberton-based, with most of your time spent at a neighbourhood supermarket.

• Pack shelves from the back, rotating older stock to the front (first in, first out)
• Build promotional displays at the ends of aisles
• Help customers find products and carry heavy items to cars
• Put up price tickets and promotion shelf strips
• Face products so labels point forward and gaps are filled
• Unpack deliveries in the receiving area and sort by aisle
• Clean spills fast and put up wet-floor signs

• Basic reading and maths for price checks
• Able to stand and lift cases all shift
• Honest, since stock losses are checked closely
• Polite with customers and happy to help

• Previous shelf packing or merchandising work
• Own transport for route merchandising jobs

• Staff discount on groceries
• Paid training in store procedures
• Chance to move into till or department roles
• Travel allowance on merchandising routes

• If you have ever sold anything, even at a school tuck shop or a family stall, list it. It shows you are comfortable with customers.
• Stores fill weekend and night-fill slots first, so write "available weekends and nights" in your CV summary line.
