  • Check sell-by dates and pull expired stock for the manager
  • Visit several stores on a merchandising route and send photos of shelves
  • Weigh, bag and price fruit and vegetables
  • Unpack deliveries in the receiving area and sort by aisle

You'll need

  • Available for weekends, month-end and public holidays
  • Honest, since stock losses are checked closely
  • Able to stand and lift cases all shift
  • Polite with customers and happy to help
  • Grade 10 or matric

Helpful, not essential

  • Previous shelf packing or merchandising work
  • Some till or cash-handling experience
  • Being 18 or older for liquor store roles

What's in it for you

  • Travel allowance on merchandising routes
  • Staff discount on groceries
