Job Description

Pick it right, pack it neat, send it out: that's the job at an online grocery fulfilment hub in George. If you learn fast and don't mind being shown things twice, you'll settle in within a few weeks.

You'll be based at an online grocery fulfilment hub in George. Living nearby, or on a taxi route to it, really helps. Start date: as soon as possible for the right person.

The work, day to day

  • Report damaged, short or expired items to the shift supervisor
  • Keep aisles clear of plastic, cardboard and loose pallets
  • Count stock during weekly cycle counts and month-end stock takes
  • Replenish empty pick faces from overstock racking
  • Unpack returned parcels and sort them into resell or write-off
  • Move pallets with a hand pallet jack to the dispatch lane

What you need

  • You're fit enough to lift boxes up to 25kg all shift
  • You can read product codes and count accurately
  • Punctual, with reliable transport home after late shifts
  • Grade 10 or higher; matric preferred
  • Willing to wear safety boots, a reflector vest and gloves
  • Clean criminal record (most warehouses run a check)

Helpful, not essential

  • Experience in a cold-chain or freezer environment
  • Basic computer skills for capturing counts

What's in it for you

  • Overtime paid at time-and-a-half on weekdays
  • Staff canteen with subsidised meals
  • Safety boots, overalls and freezer jackets supplied
