Job Description

This is steady, physical warehouse work at a building-supplies depot in Soweto, and nobody minds if it's your first job. If you turn up on time and finish what you start, you'll fit in quickly.

Location: Soweto, Gauteng. Applicants who already live in the area get looked at first. You'll start with a short induction before working on your own.

The work, day to day

  • Replenish empty pick faces from overstock racking
  • Label boxes with the correct waybill and route sticker
  • Move pallets with a hand pallet jack to the dispatch lane
  • Keep aisles clear of plastic, cardboard and loose pallets
  • Stack finished orders on pallets and stretch-wrap them tight

What you need

  • You're fit enough to lift boxes up to 25kg all shift
  • Happy to work shifts, weekends and public holidays in peak season
  • Clean criminal record (most warehouses run a check)
  • You can read product codes and count accurately
  • Willing to wear safety boots, a reflector vest and gloves
  • Punctual, with reliable transport home after late shifts

What's in it for you

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