Quality Sorter (Packaging Factory)

Here in Fourways, a snack food factory needs steady people who can repeat a task well for eight hours. Bring a calm head on busy days and you'll be fine.

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

• Move full bins and crates to the next station with a trolley
• Help the machine operator clear jams and reload hoppers
• Stop the line with the emergency stop if anything jams or looks unsafe
• Wear hairnets, beard covers and gloves in food-safe zones
• Pack finished product into cases and stack them by batch number
• Record batch codes and counts on the hourly production sheet

• No problem wearing full PPE, including ear protection
• Basic reading and counting for batch sheets
• Neat, reliable and on time for shift start
• You follow hygiene rules without being reminded

• Experience assisting on a packaging or filling machine
• A food handler or basic HACCP awareness certificate

• Night-shift allowance on top of basic pay
• Company transport on some night shifts
• Path to machine operator after six months
• Staff shop with discounted factory products

• 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.
