You'll keep a busy frozen-food distribution centre in Brakpan stocked, picked and moving out on time. If you learn fast and don't mind being shown things twice, you'll settle in within a few weeks.

  • Report damaged, short or expired items to the shift supervisor
  • Unpack returned parcels and sort them into resell or write-off
  • Move pallets with a hand pallet jack to the dispatch lane
  • Count stock during weekly cycle counts and month-end stock takes
  • Keep aisles clear of plastic, cardboard and loose pallets
  • Stack finished orders on pallets and stretch-wrap them tight

Must-haves

  • Happy to work shifts, weekends and public holidays in peak season
  • Punctual, with reliable transport home after late shifts
  • You're fit enough to lift boxes up to 25kg all shift
  • Willing to wear safety boots, a reflector vest and gloves

Nice if you have

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

On offer

  • Staff canteen with subsidised meals
