Packaging Line Operator (Rotating Shifts)

Good factory hands stay for years, and this meat processing plant in Stellenbosch trains from day one. If you like clear targets and knowing where you stand, this is for you.

You'll report in Stellenbosch. Relocation is not covered for this one.

• Stop the line with the emergency stop if anything jams or looks unsafe
• Check product for size, weight and seal faults and pull out rejects
• Help the machine operator clear jams and reload hoppers
• Follow lock-out procedures when helping with cleaning inside machines
• Hand over at shift change with notes on rejects and stoppages

• No problem wearing full PPE, including ear protection
• You follow hygiene rules without being reminded
• Neat, reliable and on time for shift start
• Basic reading and counting for batch sheets
• Grade 10 minimum, matric an advantage
• Available for rotating day and night shifts

• Night-shift allowance on top of basic pay
• Company transport on some night shifts
• Path to machine operator after six months

• Do not wear jewellery or long nails to the interview if it is on site. Food factories notice and it counts.
• Name the products you worked on before, like "biscuit line" or "juice bottling". Factory recruiters read that faster than a job title.
