  • Check product for size, weight and seal faults and pull out rejects
  • Stop the line with the emergency stop if anything jams or looks unsafe
  • Feed raw material or empty packaging into the machine at the start of the line
  • Help the machine operator clear jams and reload hoppers
  • Clean down machines and floors at the end of each run
  • Hand over at shift change with notes on rejects and stoppages

What you need

  • Available for rotating day and night shifts
  • Able to stand for a full shift in a noisy, warm area
  • You follow hygiene rules without being reminded
  • Basic reading and counting for batch sheets
  • No problem wearing full PPE, including ear protection

  • A food handler or basic HACCP awareness certificate
  • NQF Level 2 manufacturing learnership completed
  • Some basic first-aid training

On offer

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

Applying, step by step

  1. Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): ID copy, certified within the last three months plus your latest school results or matric certificate.
  3. Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
  4. Watch for a call or WhatsApp from How2Apply over the next 6 working days.
