Job Description

You'll keep the shelves full and tidy at a liquor store in Kariega, so shoppers find what they came for. You don't need to be the loudest person in the room, just the one others can count on.

The work is in Kariega, Eastern Cape, so you'll need a reliable way to get there every day.

What your day looks like

  • Check sell-by dates and pull expired stock for the manager
  • Clean spills fast and put up wet-floor signs
  • Weigh, bag and price fruit and vegetables
  • Face products so labels point forward and gaps are filled
  • Help customers find products and carry heavy items to cars
  • Build promotional displays at the ends of aisles

You'll need

  • Neat appearance and punctual
  • Polite with customers and happy to help
  • Basic reading and maths for price checks
  • Available for weekends, month-end and public holidays
  • Honest, since stock losses are checked closely

Helpful, not essential

  • Previous shelf packing or merchandising work
  • Some till or cash-handling experience
  • Own transport for route merchandising jobs

What you get

  • Travel allowance on merchandising routes
  • Chance to move into till or department roles
  • Staff discount on groceries
  • Paid training in store procedures
