Job Description

This is steady, physical warehouse work at a spares and hardware warehouse in Prospecton, 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.

The site is in Prospecton; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying. Start date: as soon as possible for the right person.

What you'll actually do

  • Scan every item so the system shows the right stock count
  • Label boxes with the correct waybill and route sticker
  • Pack cartons, add fillers and seal them with tape guns
  • Unpack returned parcels and sort them into resell or write-off
  • Replenish empty pick faces from overstock racking
  • Count stock during weekly cycle counts and month-end stock takes

What you need

  • Willing to wear safety boots, a reflector vest and gloves
  • Grade 10 or higher; matric preferred
  • You can read product codes and count accurately
  • South African ID or a valid work permit
  • Clean criminal record (most warehouses run a check)
  • You're fit enough to lift boxes up to 25kg all shift

Helpful, not essential

  • Previous picking experience with a handheld RF scanner
  • A valid forklift or reach truck certificate
  • Living within walking or taxi distance of the warehouse

What's in it for you

  • Safety boots, overalls and freezer jackets supplied
  • Staff canteen with subsidised meals
  • Permanent appointment for reliable temps after peak season
  • Overtime paid at time-and-a-half on weekdays
