Job Description

Strong back, sharp eyes on the load sheet: that is what a furniture retailer warehouse in Sandton wants. You don't need to be the loudest person in the room, just the one others can count on.

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

Guide trucks reversing into the bay with hand signals
Sweep the bay and clear shrink-wrap after each loading
Check goods received against the delivery note and flag shorts
Load trucks from the load sheet in drop order, last stop first
Ride with the driver and carry goods into customers' premises

What you need

Grade 9 or higher and able to read a delivery note
No criminal record
Comfortable starting from 04:00 or working late loading shifts
Friendly with customers at the door
Willing to travel on routes that return late

Extra points for

Basic furniture assembly skills
A Code 8 or Code 10 licence (a route to becoming a driver)
Past work as a driver's assistant

On offer

Route-completion incentives in busy months
Help to get your own licence through the company later
Uniform and safety shoes provided

Applying, step by step

Make sure the role, the hours and working in Sandton really suit you before you apply.
Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: police clearance if you already have one, CV noting any loading, moving or delivery work plus clear copy of your ID with a certification stamp.
Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 7 working days, usually by phone.

Your application joins the How2Apply talent pool for this role, and we put shortlisted people forward to employers hiring in and around Sandton.

How2Apply never charges you to apply, for training, for uniforms or for a "placement fee". If anyone asks you for money, it is a scam.

Before you hit apply

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.
