Job Description

This is steady, physical warehouse work at a pharmaceutical warehouse in Cape Town CBD, and nobody minds if it's your first job. Bring a calm head on busy days and you'll be fine.

Home base is a pharmaceutical warehouse on the Cape Town CBD side of Western Cape.

What your day looks like

  • Unpack returned parcels and sort them into resell or write-off
  • Pack cartons, add fillers and seal them with tape guns
  • Count stock during weekly cycle counts and month-end stock takes
  • Keep aisles clear of plastic, cardboard and loose pallets
  • Stack finished orders on pallets and stretch-wrap them tight

You'll need

  • Clean criminal record (most warehouses run a check)
  • Grade 10 or higher; matric preferred
  • You're fit enough to lift boxes up to 25kg all shift
  • Willing to wear safety boots, a reflector vest and gloves

Helpful, not essential

  • Basic computer skills for capturing counts
  • Living within walking or taxi distance of the warehouse
  • Previous picking experience with a handheld RF scanner

What's in it for you

  • Staff canteen with subsidised meals
  • Chance to be trained on forklift after probation
  • Permanent appointment for reliable temps after peak season

Applying, step by step

  1. Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): certified copy of your ID, any forklift or first-aid certificates you already have plus copy of your highest school report or matric certificate.
  3. Use the form on this page. It takes about two minutes and you don't need to upload anything yet.
  4. Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 5 working days.

How to stand out

  • Arrive for the interview in closed shoes. Some warehouses walk you through the floor straight away.
  • 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.
