Job Description

You'll keep a busy clothing distribution centre in Centurion stocked, picked and moving out on time. This role rewards consistency more than flash.

The work, day to day

  • Unpack returned parcels and sort them into resell or write-off
  • Keep aisles clear of plastic, cardboard and loose pallets
  • Replenish empty pick faces from overstock racking
  • Count stock during weekly cycle counts and month-end stock takes
  • Pack cartons, add fillers and seal them with tape guns
  • Pick orders from pick slips or a handheld scanner, bin by bin
  • Scan every item so the system shows the right stock count

Must-haves

  • You're fit enough to lift boxes up to 25kg all shift
  • Clean criminal record (most warehouses run a check)
  • South African ID or a valid work permit
  • Willing to wear safety boots, a reflector vest and gloves
  • Happy to work shifts, weekends and public holidays in peak season

Helpful, not essential

  • Living within walking or taxi distance of the warehouse
  • A valid forklift or reach truck certificate

On offer
