Merchandiser (Grocery Rep Route) – Entry Level

Shoppers in Centurion judge a neighbourhood supermarket by its shelves, and that is where you come in. Bring a calm head on busy days and you'll be fine.

The work is in Centurion, Gauteng, so you'll need a reliable way to get there every day. The first two weeks are spent shadowing someone experienced.
