Job Description

Every order that leaves this online grocery fulfilment hub in Soweto passes through your hands first. Someone who likes a bit of variety, but also likes doing things the right way, will enjoy this.

  • Keep aisles clear of plastic, cardboard and loose pallets
  • Wear thermal gear and rotate in and out of freezer zones on schedule
  • Label boxes with the correct waybill and route sticker
  • Move pallets with a hand pallet jack to the dispatch lane
  • Pack cartons, add fillers and seal them with tape guns
  • Unpack returned parcels and sort them into resell or write-off

What you need

  • Clean criminal record (most warehouses run a check)
  • South African ID or a valid work permit
  • You're fit enough to lift boxes up to 25kg all shift
  • Grade 10 or higher; matric preferred

Nice if you have
