Loading Bay Hand (Beverage Depot)

Strong back, sharp eyes on the load sheet: that is what a furniture retailer warehouse in Benoni wants. You'll work with a small crew, so being easy to work with matters as much as skill.

This post is Benoni-based, with most of your time spent at a furniture retailer warehouse.

• Load trucks from the load sheet in drop order, last stop first
• Sweep the bay and clear shrink-wrap after each loading
• Offload containers by hand, counting cartons as they come off
• Stack returns and empties neatly for the next count
• Ride with the driver and carry goods into customers' premises
• Guide trucks reversing into the bay with hand signals
• Assemble or place furniture where the customer asks

• Friendly with customers at the door
• No criminal record
• Comfortable starting from 04:00 or working late loading shifts
• Honest; you will be handling customer goods and cash-on-delivery slips
• Willing to travel on routes that return late
• Able to lift and carry heavy items all day

• Past work as a driver's assistant
• A Code 8 or Code 10 licence (a route to becoming a driver)

• Uniform and safety shoes provided
• Route-completion incentives in busy months
• Help to get your own licence through the company later

• Keep your CV to one page with your phone number big and clear. Depot managers phone, they seldom email.
• Say what hours you can start. Loading bays often hire the person who can be there at 04:00 without fail.
