Packaging Line Operator (Rotating Shifts)

Good factory hands stay for years, and this meat processing plant in Epping trains from day one. You'll work with a small crew, so being easy to work with matters as much as skill.

The work is in Epping, Western Cape, so you'll need a reliable way to get there every day.

• Hand over at shift change with notes on rejects and stoppages
• Feed raw material or empty packaging into the machine at the start of the line
• Move full bins and crates to the next station with a trolley
• Follow lock-out procedures when helping with cleaning inside machines

• Basic reading and counting for batch sheets
• Available for rotating day and night shifts
• Neat, reliable and on time for shift start
• Grade 10 minimum, matric an advantage
