Offloader (Container Depot)

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

The work is in Ermelo, Mpumalanga, so you'll need a reliable way to get there every day.

• Assemble or place furniture where the customer asks
• Sweep the bay and clear shrink-wrap after each loading
• Guide trucks reversing into the bay with hand signals
• Get proof-of-delivery notes signed and stamped at each drop
• Ride with the driver and carry goods into customers' premises

• Willing to travel on routes that return late
• Comfortable starting from 04:00 or working late loading shifts
• Honest; you will be handling customer goods and cash-on-delivery slips
• Grade 9 or higher and able to read a delivery note
• Able to lift and carry heavy items all day
• No criminal record

• Speaking more than one local language for customer drops
• A Code 8 or Code 10 licence (a route to becoming a driver)

• Uniform and safety shoes provided
• Meal allowance on long-route days
• 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.
• If you are learning to drive, mention it. Depots like to grow assistants into drivers.
