Order Picker (Cold Store)

Pick it right, pack it neat, send it out: that's the job at an online grocery fulfilment hub in Fourways. People who do well here are steady, honest and not scared to ask when something is unclear.

This post is Fourways-based, with most of your time spent at an online grocery fulfilment hub.

• Replenish empty pick faces from overstock racking
• Wear thermal gear and rotate in and out of freezer zones on schedule
• Pack cartons, add fillers and seal them with tape guns
• Count stock during weekly cycle counts and month-end stock takes
• Stack finished orders on pallets and stretch-wrap them tight

• Clean criminal record (most warehouses run a check)
• Happy to work shifts, weekends and public holidays in peak season
• South African ID or a valid work permit
• Grade 10 or higher; matric preferred

• Previous picking experience with a handheld RF scanner
• Basic computer skills for capturing counts
• Living within walking or taxi distance of the warehouse

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

• If you have done any stock counts, packing or even shelf work before, list it first. It shows you already know how to handle stock.
• Say clearly that you can work nights and weekends. Peak-season hiring goes to people who are available.
