Warehouse General Hand (Day Shift)

Pick it right, pack it neat, send it out: that's the job at a spares and hardware warehouse in Epping. This is a good step for someone who wants proper routine and a manager who notices good work.

The site is in Epping; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying. Start is planned for the beginning of next month.

• Unpack returned parcels and sort them into resell or write-off
• Count stock during weekly cycle counts and month-end stock takes
• Report damaged, short or expired items to the shift supervisor
• Replenish empty pick faces from overstock racking
• Pick orders from pick slips or a handheld scanner, bin by bin
• Scan every item so the system shows the right stock count

• Punctual, with reliable transport home after late shifts
• Grade 10 or higher; matric preferred
• You're fit enough to lift boxes up to 25kg all shift
• Clean criminal record (most warehouses run a check)
• Willing to wear safety boots, a reflector vest and gloves
• South African ID or a valid work permit

• Previous picking experience with a handheld RF scanner
• Experience in a cold-chain or freezer environment
• Living within walking or taxi distance of the warehouse

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

• Arrive for the interview in closed shoes. Some warehouses walk you through the floor straight away.
• Say clearly that you can work nights and weekends. Peak-season hiring goes to people who are available.
