Job Description

Every order that leaves this building-supplies depot in Vereeniging passes through your hands first. It's a practical job: you'll see what you got done before you go home.

You'll be based at a building-supplies depot in Vereeniging. Living nearby, or on a taxi route to it, really helps. You'll start with a short induction before working on your own.

What your day looks like

  • Stack finished orders on pallets and stretch-wrap them tight
  • Pack cartons, add fillers and seal them with tape guns
  • Count stock during weekly cycle counts and month-end stock takes
  • Wear thermal gear and rotate in and out of freezer zones on schedule
  • Pick orders from pick slips or a handheld scanner, bin by bin
  • Move pallets with a hand pallet jack to the dispatch lane

You'll need

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

Nice if you have

  • Previous picking experience with a handheld RF scanner
  • Living within walking or taxi distance of the warehouse
  • A valid forklift or reach truck certificate

What's in it for you

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

Applying, step by step

  1. Make sure the role, the hours and working in Vereeniging really suit you before you apply.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): certified copy of your ID plus any forklift or first-aid certificates you already have.
  3. Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
  4. Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 7 working days.
