Returns Processing Hand

This is steady, physical warehouse work at a pharmaceutical warehouse in Centurion, and nobody minds if it's your first job. It's a practical job: you'll see what you got done before you go home.

Home base is a pharmaceutical warehouse on the Centurion side of Gauteng. Hours are mostly Monday to Friday, with the odd Saturday in busy months.

• Stack finished orders on pallets and stretch-wrap them tight
• Keep aisles clear of plastic, cardboard and loose pallets
• Count stock during weekly cycle counts and month-end stock takes
• Pick orders from pick slips or a handheld scanner, bin by bin
• Scan every item so the system shows the right stock count

• Clean criminal record (most warehouses run a check)
• South African ID or a valid work permit
• You can read product codes and count accurately
• Willing to wear safety boots, a reflector vest and gloves
• Grade 10 or higher; matric preferred

• Previous picking experience with a handheld RF scanner
• Experience in a cold-chain or freezer environment
• Basic computer skills for capturing counts

• Permanent appointment for reliable temps after peak season
• Staff canteen with subsidised meals
• Overtime paid at time-and-a-half on weekdays
• Chance to be trained on forklift after probation

• If you have done any stock counts, packing or even shelf work before, list it first. It shows you already know how to handle stock.
• Arrive for the interview in closed shoes. Some warehouses walk you through the floor straight away.
