Job Description

Every order that leaves this spares and hardware warehouse in Benoni passes through your hands first. If you like clear targets and knowing where you stand, this is for you.

The site is in Benoni; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying. Start date: as soon as possible for the right person.

What you'll actually do

  • Replenish empty pick faces from overstock racking
  • Pick orders from pick slips or a handheld scanner, bin by bin
  • Wear thermal gear and rotate in and out of freezer zones on schedule
  • Keep aisles clear of plastic, cardboard and loose pallets
  • Pack cartons, add fillers and seal them with tape guns
  • Move pallets with a hand pallet jack to the dispatch lane

What you need

  • Grade 10 or higher; matric preferred
  • Willing to wear safety boots, a reflector vest and gloves
  • Happy to work shifts, weekends and public holidays in peak season
  • Punctual, with reliable transport home after late shifts
  • Clean criminal record (most warehouses run a check)
  • You can read product codes and count accurately

Helpful, not essential

  • Experience in a cold-chain or freezer environment
  • A valid forklift or reach truck certificate
  • Living within walking or taxi distance of the warehouse

On offer

  • Staff canteen with subsidised meals
  • Overtime paid at time-and-a-half on weekdays
  • Safety boots, overalls and freezer jackets supplied
  • Chance to be trained on forklift after probation
