Job Description

You'll keep a busy spares and hardware warehouse in Rustenburg stocked, picked and moving out on time. You'll work with a small crew, so being easy to work with matters as much as skill.

The work is in Rustenburg, North West, so you'll need a reliable way to get there every day.

The work, day to day

  • Replenish empty pick faces from overstock racking
  • Label boxes with the correct waybill and route sticker
  • Wear thermal gear and rotate in and out of freezer zones on schedule
  • Unpack returned parcels and sort them into resell or write-off
  • Pick orders from pick slips or a handheld scanner, bin by bin
  • Stack finished orders on pallets and stretch-wrap them tight
  • Pack cartons, add fillers and seal them with tape guns

Must-haves

  • Grade 10 or higher; matric preferred
  • You can read product codes and count accurately
  • You're fit enough to lift boxes up to 25kg all shift
  • South African ID or a valid work permit
  • Clean criminal record (most warehouses run a check)
  • Happy to work shifts, weekends and public holidays in peak season

Nice if you have

  • A valid forklift or reach truck certificate
  • Living within walking or taxi distance of the warehouse
  • Basic computer skills for capturing counts

What's in it for you

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