Job Description

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.

What your day looks like

  • 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

You'll need

  • 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

Helpful, not essential

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

On offer

  • 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
