Job Description

You'll keep a busy building-supplies depot in Atlantis stocked, picked and moving out on time. Expect to be trusted with real work from your first week.

You'll be based at a building-supplies depot in Atlantis. Living nearby, or on a taxi route to it, really helps. Start date: as soon as possible for the right person.

What your day looks like

  • Unpack returned parcels and sort them into resell or write-off
  • Keep aisles clear of plastic, cardboard and loose pallets
  • Replenish empty pick faces from overstock racking
  • Scan every item so the system shows the right stock count
  • Move pallets with a hand pallet jack to the dispatch lane
  • Count stock during weekly cycle counts and month-end stock takes

You'll need

  • Punctual, with reliable transport home after late shifts
  • Willing to wear safety boots, a reflector vest and gloves
  • Clean criminal record (most warehouses run a check)
  • Grade 10 or higher; matric preferred
  • Happy to work shifts, weekends and public holidays in peak season
  • South African ID or a valid work permit

Nice if you have

  • A valid forklift or reach truck certificate
  • Basic computer skills for capturing counts

What's in it for you

  • Staff canteen with subsidised meals
  • Safety boots, overalls and freezer jackets supplied
  • Overtime paid at time-and-a-half on weekdays
  • Permanent appointment for reliable temps after peak season

How to apply

  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): any forklift or first-aid certificates you already have plus short CV with a working cellphone number.
  3. Fill in the short form below with your name and a phone number you actually answer.
  4. If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 5 working days, usually by phone.

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.

Tips to get shortlisted

  • Put your cellphone number and the area you live in at the very top of your CV. Warehouse recruiters phone fast and hire people close by.
  • Arrive for the interview in closed shoes. Some warehouses walk you through the floor straight away.
