Meat Processing Line Worker – Experienced

Here in Coega, a plastic moulding plant needs steady people who can repeat a task well for eight hours. It's a practical job: you'll see what you got done before you go home.

This post is in Coega (Eastern Cape). Please only apply if you can travel there daily.

• Feed raw material or empty packaging into the machine at the start of the line
• Pack finished product into cases and stack them by batch number

• Grade 10 minimum, matric an advantage
• Neat, reliable and on time for shift start
