Job Description

Every order that leaves this frozen-food distribution centre in Sandton passes through your hands first. It suits someone who likes knowing exactly what a good day's work looks like.

You'll report in Sandton. Relocation is not covered for this one. Weekend work is on a roster, so you won't be on every weekend.

What your day looks like

  • Report damaged, short or expired items to the shift supervisor
  • Label boxes with the correct waybill and route sticker
  • Pack cartons, add fillers and seal them with tape guns
  • Stack finished orders on pallets and stretch-wrap them tight
  • Count stock during weekly cycle counts and month-end stock takes
  • Wear thermal gear and rotate in and out of freezer zones on schedule
  • Replenish empty pick faces from overstock racking

What you need

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

Helpful, not essential

  • Previous picking experience with a handheld RF scanner
  • Living within walking or taxi distance of the warehouse

What you get

  • Overtime paid at time-and-a-half on weekdays
  • Staff canteen with subsidised meals
  • Permanent appointment for reliable temps after peak season
  • Chance to be trained on forklift after probation

Applying, step by step

  1. Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): any forklift or first-aid certificates you already have plus copy of your highest school report or matric certificate.
  3. Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
  4. Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 7 working days.
