Offloader (Container Depot) – Entry Level

Strong back, sharp eyes on the load sheet: that is what a beverage depot in Sandton wants. People who do well here are steady, honest and not scared to ask when something is unclear.

This post is in Sandton (Gauteng). Please only apply if you can travel there daily.

• Get proof-of-delivery notes signed and stamped at each drop
• Sweep the bay and clear shrink-wrap after each loading
• Guide trucks reversing into the bay with hand signals
• Strap and secure loads so nothing shifts in transit
• Check goods received against the delivery note and flag shorts
• Assemble or place furniture where the customer asks

• Grade 9 or higher and able to read a delivery note
• No criminal record
• Friendly with customers at the door
• Comfortable starting from 04:00 or working late loading shifts
• Honest; you will be handling customer goods and cash-on-delivery slips

• Past work as a driver's assistant
• Basic furniture assembly skills
• Speaking more than one local language for customer drops

• Meal allowance on long-route days
• Help to get your own licence through the company later
• Uniform and safety shoes provided

• If you are learning to drive, mention it. Depots like to grow assistants into drivers.
• Keep your CV to one page with your phone number big and clear. Depot managers phone, they seldom email.
