Job Description

Trucks come in heavy and leave loaded at this container unpacking yard in Montague Gardens, and you move the stock in between. You don't need to be the loudest person in the room, just the one others can count on.

You'll be based at a container unpacking yard in Montague Gardens. Living nearby, or on a taxi route to it, really helps. Shifts rotate, so you'll need to be flexible about days and nights.

What you'll actually do

  • Check goods received against the delivery note and flag shorts
  • Offload containers by hand, counting cartons as they come off
  • Ride with the driver and carry goods into customers' premises
  • Sweep the bay and clear shrink-wrap after each loading
  • Guide trucks reversing into the bay with hand signals
  • Strap and secure loads so nothing shifts in transit
  • Get proof-of-delivery notes signed and stamped at each drop

Must-haves

  • Friendly with customers at the door
  • Willing to travel on routes that return late
  • Honest; you will be handling customer goods and cash-on-delivery slips
  • Grade 9 or higher and able to read a delivery note
  • Comfortable starting from 04:00 or working late loading shifts

On offer

  • Help to get your own licence through the company later
  • Uniform and safety shoes provided
  • Meal allowance on long-route days

Applying, step by step

  1. Make sure the role, the hours and working in Montague Gardens really suit you before you apply.
  2. Keep copies of these ready to send: clear copy of your ID with a certification stamp, CV noting any loading, moving or delivery work plus police clearance if you already have one.
  3. Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
  4. If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 5 working days, usually by phone.
