Job Description

You'll help walk-in customers at a courier depot counter in Potchefstroom, face to face, all day. If you turn up on time and finish what you start, you'll fit in quickly.

  • Greet customers, find out what they need and manage the queue ticket system.
  • Do SIM swaps and RICA registrations with proper ID checks.
  • Upsell contract upgrades, accessories or cover when it fits the customer.
  • Track parcels, reissue waybills and arrange redelivery at the counter.
  • Log complaints and pass them to the store or branch manager.
  • Call customers when repairs or orders are ready to collect.

You'll need

  • Presentable and approachable with all kinds of customers
  • Retail or customer service experience of at least a year
  • Good on a computer and point-of-sale system
  • Retail hours, including Saturdays, Sundays and month-end
  • You can stay polite with a long queue watching
  • Matric (Grade 12) certificate

Helpful, not essential

  • Speaking the main local language of your area

On offer

  3. Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
  4. Watch for a call or WhatsApp from How2Apply over the next 8 working days.
