Job Description

Every order that leaves this online grocery fulfilment hub in Isando passes through your hands first. This role rewards consistency more than flash.

The work is in Isando, Gauteng, so you'll need a reliable way to get there every day. You'll start with a short induction before working on your own.

What you'll actually do

  • Pack cartons, add fillers and seal them with tape guns
  • Keep aisles clear of plastic, cardboard and loose pallets
  • Scan every item so the system shows the right stock count
  • Stack finished orders on pallets and stretch-wrap them tight
  • Move pallets with a hand pallet jack to the dispatch lane
  • Count stock during weekly cycle counts and month-end stock takes

What you need

  • South African ID or a valid work permit
  • Happy to work shifts, weekends and public holidays in peak season
  • Clean criminal record (most warehouses run a check)
  • Willing to wear safety boots, a reflector vest and gloves

Nice if you have

  • A valid forklift or reach truck certificate
  • Living within walking or taxi distance of the warehouse

What you get

  • Chance to be trained on forklift after probation
  • Permanent appointment for reliable temps after peak season
  • Staff canteen with subsidised meals
  • Safety boots, overalls and freezer jackets supplied

Applying, step by step

  1. Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
  2. Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: copy of your highest school report or matric certificate plus short CV with a working cellphone number.
  3. Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
  4. If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 6 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 Isando.

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.
  • 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.
