Job Description

You'll keep a busy clothing distribution centre in Brackenfell stocked, picked and moving out on time. You'll work with a small crew, so being easy to work with matters as much as skill.

The site is in Brackenfell; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying. Most weeks are 45 hours, in line with the BCEA.

What you'll actually do

  • Move pallets with a hand pallet jack to the dispatch lane
  • Count stock during weekly cycle counts and month-end stock takes
  • Unpack returned parcels and sort them into resell or write-off
  • Pick orders from pick slips or a handheld scanner, bin by bin
  • Scan every item so the system shows the right stock count

You'll need

  • Grade 10 or higher; matric preferred
  • You're fit enough to lift boxes up to 25kg all shift
  • You can read product codes and count accurately
  • South African ID or a valid work permit
  • Clean criminal record (most warehouses run a check)
  • Happy to work shifts, weekends and public holidays in peak season

Helpful, not essential

  • Basic computer skills for capturing counts
  • Experience in a cold-chain or freezer environment
  • Living within walking or taxi distance of the warehouse

What's in it for you

  • Permanent appointment for reliable temps after peak season
  • Chance to be trained on forklift after probation
  • Staff canteen with subsidised meals
  • Safety boots, overalls and freezer jackets supplied
