Job Description

You'll keep the shelves full and tidy at a township shopping centre store in Kimberley, so shoppers find what they came for. If you learn fast and don't mind being shown things twice, you'll settle in within a few weeks.

Home base is a township shopping centre store on the Kimberley side of Northern Cape. Weekend work is on a roster, so you won't be on every weekend.

What you'll actually do

  • Help customers find products and carry heavy items to cars
  • Unpack deliveries in the receiving area and sort by aisle
  • Put up price tickets and promotion shelf strips
  • Collect trolleys from the parking lot
  • Visit several stores on a merchandising route and send photos of shelves
  • Check sell-by dates and pull expired stock for the manager

Must-haves

  • Available for weekends, month-end and public holidays
  • Honest, since stock losses are checked closely
  • Polite with customers and happy to help
  • Basic reading and maths for price checks

Helpful, not essential

  • Some till or cash-handling experience
  • Previous shelf packing or merchandising work
  • Being 18 or older for liquor store roles

What's in it for you

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

How to apply

  1. Make sure the role, the hours and working in Kimberley really suit you before you apply.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): CV with the days and times you can work, ID document or smart card, with a certified copy plus matric results or last school report.
  3. Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
  4. Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 5 working days.

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

How2Apply never charges you to apply, for training, for uniforms or for a "placement fee". If anyone asks you for money, it is a scam.

Before you hit apply

  • Stores fill weekend and night-fill slots first, so write "available weekends and nights" in your CV summary line.
  • Hand your CV in at the store in person, early in the week, and ask for the store or receiving manager by name.
