Job Description

Trucks come in heavy and leave loaded at this furniture retailer warehouse in Alberton, and you move the stock in between. This is a good step for someone who wants proper routine and a manager who notices good work.

This post is Alberton-based, with most of your time spent at a furniture retailer warehouse. Start is planned for the beginning of next month.

What your day looks like

Strap and secure loads so nothing shifts in transit
Sweep the bay and clear shrink-wrap after each loading
Stack returns and empties neatly for the next count
Guide trucks reversing into the bay with hand signals
Load trucks from the load sheet in drop order, last stop first
Ride with the driver and carry goods into customers' premises
Check goods received against the delivery note and flag shorts

What you need

Willing to travel on routes that return late
Honest; you will be handling customer goods and cash-on-delivery slips
Comfortable starting from 04:00 or working late loading shifts
Grade 9 or higher and able to read a delivery note
Able to lift and carry heavy items all day
Friendly with customers at the door

Helpful, not essential

Speaking more than one local language for customer drops
A Code 8 or Code 10 licence (a route to becoming a driver)

On offer

Route-completion incentives in busy months
Meal allowance on long-route days
Uniform and safety shoes provided

Applying, step by step

Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): police clearance if you already have one, clear copy of your ID with a certification stamp plus CV noting any loading, moving or delivery work.
Use the form on this page. It takes about two minutes and you don't need to upload anything yet.
If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 5 working days, usually by phone.

Your application joins the How2Apply talent pool for this role, and we put shortlisted people forward to employers hiring in and around Alberton.

How2Apply never charges you to apply, for training, for uniforms or for a "placement fee". If anyone asks you for money, it is a scam.

Tips to get shortlisted

If you are learning to drive, mention it. Depots like to grow assistants into drivers.
Say what hours you can start. Loading bays often hire the person who can be there at 04:00 without fail.
