Receiving Clerk Assistant (Goods Inwards)

Strong back, sharp eyes on the load sheet: that is what a parcel sorting hub in Bloemfontein wants. Good for someone who wants to build a solid track record they can put on their CV.

You'll report in Bloemfontein. Relocation is not covered for this one. The first two weeks are spent shadowing someone experienced.

• Sweep the bay and clear shrink-wrap after each loading
• Guide trucks reversing into the bay with hand signals
• Get proof-of-delivery notes signed and stamped at each drop
• Assemble or place furniture where the customer asks
• Check goods received against the delivery note and flag shorts
• Load trucks from the load sheet in drop order, last stop first
• Ride with the driver and carry goods into customers' premises

• Grade 9 or higher and able to read a delivery note
• Honest; you will be handling customer goods and cash-on-delivery slips
• Comfortable starting from 04:00 or working late loading shifts
• Friendly with customers at the door
• No criminal record

• Basic furniture assembly skills
• A Code 8 or Code 10 licence (a route to becoming a driver)

• Uniform and safety shoes provided
• Meal allowance on long-route days
• Route-completion incentives in busy months
• Help to get your own licence through the company later

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