You'll keep a busy frozen-food distribution centre in Rosslyn stocked, picked and moving out on time. It's a practical job: you'll see what you got done before you go home.

You'll report in Rosslyn. Relocation is not covered for this one. Overtime comes up in peak season and is paid.

  • Move pallets with a hand pallet jack to the dispatch lane
  • Unpack returned parcels and sort them into resell or write-off
  • Label boxes with the correct waybill and route sticker
  • Replenish empty pick faces from overstock racking
  • Count stock during weekly cycle counts and month-end stock takes

You'll need

  • Happy to work shifts, weekends and public holidays in peak season
  • Punctual, with reliable transport home after late shifts
  • You can read product codes and count accurately
  • Clean criminal record (most warehouses run a check)
  • South African ID or a valid work permit

Helpful, not essential

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

What you get

  • Staff canteen with subsidised meals
  • Chance to be trained on forklift after probation

  • Safety boots, overalls and freezer jackets supplied
