Job Description

You'll keep a busy clothing distribution centre in Montague Gardens stocked, picked and moving out on time. It's the kind of job where doing the basics well every day gets you noticed.

  • Pack cartons, add fillers and seal them with tape guns
  • Label boxes with the correct waybill and route sticker
  • Wear thermal gear and rotate in and out of freezer zones on schedule
  • Stack finished orders on pallets and stretch-wrap them tight
  • Pick orders from pick slips or a handheld scanner, bin by bin
  • Unpack returned parcels and sort them into resell or write-off

You'll need

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

Nice if you have

  • Living within walking or taxi distance of the warehouse
  • Experience in a cold-chain or freezer environment
  • Basic computer skills for capturing counts

What you get

  • Staff canteen with subsidised meals
  • Chance to be trained on forklift after probation
  • Overtime paid at time-and-a-half on weekdays
