Job Description

You'll keep a busy building-supplies depot in Upington stocked, picked and moving out on time. Someone who likes a bit of variety, but also likes doing things the right way, will enjoy this.

This post is in Upington (Northern Cape). Please only apply if you can travel there daily. Most weeks are 45 hours, in line with the BCEA.

The work, day to day

  • Report damaged, short or expired items to the shift supervisor
  • Scan every item so the system shows the right stock count
  • Count stock during weekly cycle counts and month-end stock takes
  • Replenish empty pick faces from overstock racking
  • Move pallets with a hand pallet jack to the dispatch lane
  • Label boxes with the correct waybill and route sticker
  • Pack cartons, add fillers and seal them with tape guns

What you need

  • Willing to wear safety boots, a reflector vest and gloves
  • Happy to work shifts, weekends and public holidays in peak season
  • You're fit enough to lift boxes up to 25kg all shift
  • South African ID or a valid work permit
  • Clean criminal record (most warehouses run a check)
  • Grade 10 or higher; matric preferred

On offer

  • Safety boots, overalls and freezer jackets supplied
  • Permanent appointment for reliable temps after peak season
  • Chance to be trained on forklift after probation

How to apply for this job

  1. Make sure the role, the hours and working in Upington really suit you before you apply.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): copy of your highest school report or matric certificate, certified copy of your ID plus any forklift or first-aid certificates you already have.
  3. Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
  4. Watch for a call or WhatsApp from How2Apply over the next 9 working days.
