Job Description

You'll keep a busy building-supplies depot in Germiston stocked, picked and moving out on time. Expect to be trusted with real work from your first week.

This post is in Germiston (Gauteng). Please only apply if you can travel there daily. The first two weeks are spent shadowing someone experienced.

What you'll actually do

  • Stack finished orders on pallets and stretch-wrap them tight
  • Report damaged, short or expired items to the shift supervisor
  • Wear thermal gear and rotate in and out of freezer zones on schedule
  • Scan every item so the system shows the right stock count
  • Pack cartons, add fillers and seal them with tape guns
  • Move pallets with a hand pallet jack to the dispatch lane
  • Count stock during weekly cycle counts and month-end stock takes

Must-haves

  • Punctual, with reliable transport home after late shifts
  • Happy to work shifts, weekends and public holidays in peak season
  • You're fit enough to lift boxes up to 25kg all shift
  • Willing to wear safety boots, a reflector vest and gloves

Nice if you have

  • Experience in a cold-chain or freezer environment
  • Previous picking experience with a handheld RF scanner

On offer

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