Warehouse General Hand (Day Shift)

This is steady, physical warehouse work at a building-supplies depot in Cape Town CBD, and nobody minds if it's your first job. Someone who likes a bit of variety, but also likes doing things the right way, will enjoy this.

You'll be based at a building-supplies depot in Cape Town CBD. Living nearby, or on a taxi route to it, really helps. Shifts rotate, so you'll need to be flexible about days and nights.
