Returns Processing Hand

Pick it right, pack it neat, send it out: that's the job at a spares and hardware warehouse in Vereeniging. It's a practical job: you'll see what you got done before you go home.

This post is Vereeniging-based, with most of your time spent at a spares and hardware warehouse. Hours are mostly Monday to Friday, with the odd Saturday in busy months.

• Unpack returned parcels and sort them into resell or write-off
• Report damaged, short or expired items to the shift supervisor
• Stack finished orders on pallets and stretch-wrap them tight
• Scan every item so the system shows the right stock count
• Count stock during weekly cycle counts and month-end stock takes
• Pick orders from pick slips or a handheld scanner, bin by bin

• You can read product codes and count accurately
• Grade 10 or higher; matric preferred
• Punctual, with reliable transport home after late shifts
• Willing to wear safety boots, a reflector vest and gloves
• South African ID or a valid work permit
• Happy to work shifts, weekends and public holidays in peak season

• A valid forklift or reach truck certificate
• Basic computer skills for capturing counts
• Previous picking experience with a handheld RF scanner

• Permanent appointment for reliable temps after peak season
• Staff canteen with subsidised meals
• Safety boots, overalls and freezer jackets supplied

• 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.
• Say clearly that you can work nights and weekends. Peak-season hiring goes to people who are available.
