Job Description

You'll keep a busy building-supplies depot in Hammarsdale 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.

The work is in Hammarsdale, KwaZulu-Natal, so you'll need a reliable way to get there every day. Shifts rotate, so you'll need to be flexible about days and nights.

The work, day to day

  • Scan every item so the system shows the right stock count
  • Unpack returned parcels and sort them into resell or write-off
  • Count stock during weekly cycle counts and month-end stock takes
  • Stack finished orders on pallets and stretch-wrap them tight
  • Pack cartons, add fillers and seal them with tape guns

What you need

  • You're fit enough to lift boxes up to 25kg all shift
  • Punctual, with reliable transport home after late shifts
  • Happy to work shifts, weekends and public holidays in peak season
  • Clean criminal record (most warehouses run a check)
  • South African ID or a valid work permit

Helpful, not essential

  • Basic computer skills for capturing counts
  • Previous picking experience with a handheld RF scanner
  • Experience in a cold-chain or freezer environment

On offer

  • Safety boots, overalls and freezer jackets supplied
  • Overtime paid at time-and-a-half on weekdays
  • Chance to be trained on forklift after probation
  • Permanent appointment for reliable temps after peak season

Applying, step by step

  1. Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
  2. Keep copies of these ready to send: any forklift or first-aid certificates you already have plus short CV with a working cellphone number.
  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 6 working days.
