Job Description

Pick it right, pack it neat, send it out: that's the job at an online grocery fulfilment hub in Pietermaritzburg. You'll work with a small crew, so being easy to work with matters as much as skill.

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

What you'll actually do

  • Stack finished orders on pallets and stretch-wrap them tight
  • Count stock during weekly cycle counts and month-end stock takes
  • Replenish empty pick faces from overstock racking
  • Unpack returned parcels and sort them into resell or write-off
  • Report damaged, short or expired items to the shift supervisor
  • Scan every item so the system shows the right stock count
  • Label boxes with the correct waybill and route sticker

What you need

  • You can read product codes and count accurately
  • Punctual, with reliable transport home after late shifts
  • South African ID or a valid work permit
  • Willing to wear safety boots, a reflector vest and gloves
  • Clean criminal record (most warehouses run a check)

Nice if you have

  • Experience in a cold-chain or freezer environment
  • A valid forklift or reach truck certificate

What's in it for you

  • Chance to be trained on forklift after probation
  • Safety boots, overalls and freezer jackets supplied
  • Overtime paid at time-and-a-half on weekdays
