Work-Force
A Picker Packer position is being filled in Mdantsane. Suitable candidates from across Eastern Cape are invited to submit their applications for review.
The Role
This Picker Packer role has been briefed against a clear set of outcomes for Mdantsane. The successful candidate will work alongside an established team and will be expected to contribute meaningfully to the logistics jobs pipeline across Eastern Cape.
Communication runs both ways. Managers across the logistics jobs team in Eastern Cape make time for one-to-ones, and people are expected to speak up early when something needs attention.
Tools, systems and information are there to support the role rather than slow it down. The company continues to invest in the technology that backs its Mdantsane teams, and the new Picker Packer will feel that from the first week.
What We Offer
Few roles let you see the impact of your work as quickly as this one. Every shift, project and decision in Mdantsane contributes to real outcomes for clients and colleagues across the logistics jobs space in Eastern Cape.
Career development may be available depending on the role, business needs and the hiring organisation’s policies.
The package, working arrangements and any available support will be confirmed by the hiring organisation for this vacancy.
A Typical Day
Your day kicks off in the yard or at the dock, checking schedules, briefing your team and lining up the day’s priorities. You move between receiving, picking, dispatch and the WMS, keeping a close eye on accuracy and time slots. There are constant conversations — with drivers, controllers, customers and the warehouse floor — and the better you communicate, the smoother things run. By the end of the shift, the racks are tidy, the trucks are out, and the next inbound load is already on its way.
No two days look exactly the same — and that variety is part of what keeps the role engaging for the right candidate in Mdantsane.
Crucially, the Mdantsane office buzzes through peak hours and settles into focused, productive lulls in between, giving you time to plan and reset before the next stretch of work.
Daily Duties
- Maintain housekeeping standards in racking, aisles and yard areas
- Operate forklifts and material handling equipment safely
- Support cycle-count and full inventory takes with the finance team
- Liaise with transporters, drivers and customers on dispatch schedules
- Conduct daily, weekly and monthly stock counts and investigate variances
Essential Criteria
- Willingness to work in a fast-paced, target-driven environment
- Understanding of inbound, outbound and stock-take processes
- Computer literacy in MS Office and basic ERP modules
- Ability to work shifts, including night shifts and weekends
- Relevant logistics, supply chain or warehousing qualification (preferred)
