Job Description

Good factory hands stay for years, and this industrial bakery in Brackenfell trains from day one. This role rewards consistency more than flash.

  • Feed raw material or empty packaging into the machine at the start of the line
  • Check product for size, weight and seal faults and pull out rejects
  • Stop the line with the emergency stop if anything jams or looks unsafe
  • Pack finished product into cases and stack them by batch number
  • Clean down machines and floors at the end of each run
  • Help the machine operator clear jams and reload hoppers
  • Follow lock-out procedures when helping with cleaning inside machines

What you need

  • Available for rotating day and night shifts
  • You follow hygiene rules without being reminded
  • Neat, reliable and on time for shift start
  • Medically fit; some food plants ask for a medical check
  • Grade 10 minimum, matric an advantage
  • No problem wearing full PPE, including ear protection

Nice if you have

  • A food handler or basic HACCP awareness certificate
  • Some basic first-aid training

On offer
