Picker Packer

A vacancy has been confirmed for a Picker Packer based in Secunda, Mpumalanga. The successful candidate will join an established team within the logistics jobs function.

The Role

An experienced Picker Packer is needed to support operations in Secunda. The role forms part of how the business keeps its logistics jobs portfolio strong in Mpumalanga.

The successful applicant is given the room to plan, deliver and review their work without unnecessary noise. The organisation has built its Secunda team on trust, and the Picker Packer role will feel that from week one.

Internal documentation, process notes and shared playbooks make it easier for the Picker Packer to step into the logistics jobs workflow quickly. Institutional knowledge is well-organised, so people are not reinventing the wheel from one week to the next.

Quality is everyone’s job. Whether the Picker Packer is processing a transaction, supporting a colleague or handling a customer query, the standard expected in Mpumalanga is consistently high and consistently fair.

Our Commitment to Transformation

Inclusion is a core part of how the team operates. This is an equal-opportunity employer, and candidates from all communities — including women, youth and persons living with disabilities — are encouraged to apply for this role in Secunda.

B-BBEE compliance is more than a scorecard here. It informs how the business invests in skills development, supplier diversity and community engagement across the country.

Practical steps back the words. Structured EE reporting, transformation initiatives and learnership programmes give real opportunities to candidates from across Mpumalanga.

Inclusive hiring extends through onboarding and into how teams operate every day. Respectful, fair conduct is expected from every team member in Secunda.

Based in Secunda

Notably, the role is based in Secunda, close to the Komatipoort border post. Public transport links and parking are within easy reach, making the daily commute manageable for candidates living across Secunda and the broader Mpumalanga region.

If you are relocating, the team can share practical pointers on neighbourhoods, transport and the typical pace of life in Secunda, Mpumalanga.

Many candidates already living within reach of Secunda cite the location as one of the role’s quiet wins, with shorter commutes and a real sense of being plugged into the local Mpumalanga economy.

Accessibility is taken seriously: where the role allows, the team works toward a balance of in-office presence and flexibility for candidates based in and around Secunda.

The Environment

Beyond that, the environment is operationally driven and physical at times, with shift-based work, strict safety standards and a strong focus on accuracy and on-time delivery.

Health, safety and well-being are taken seriously. Current policies and procedures are maintained, and the Secunda site adheres to the standards expected of a responsible South African employer.

Equally, the working environment is set up to give the team the focus needed for deeper work, while keeping collaboration and quick problem-solving close at hand.

Notably, a respectful, professional environment is the standard in Mpumalanga. Bullying, harassment and unfair conduct have no place here, and managers are trained to act decisively when concerns are raised.

Why Join Us

You will join a team that values respectful collaboration, honest feedback and shared wins. The Secunda colleagues take pride in supporting one another and in doing the logistics jobs side of the business properly, day in and day out.

On top of that, the company reinvests in its people: paid training, internal moves and the chance to take on bigger projects are all part of how careers in Secunda keep progressing.

Benefits are clear and consistent. Beyond the package on offer, the role includes the supports you would expect from an established South African employer in Mpumalanga.

Recognition matters here. Strong performers are noticed quickly, and many promotions across the business have started in the Secunda teams.

What Your Day Looks Like

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.

Practically speaking, the Secunda 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.

Practically speaking, the rhythm rewards people who plan ahead but also pivot quickly when Mpumalanga operations throw up the unexpected.

No two days look exactly the same — and that variety is part of what keeps the role engaging for the right candidate in Secunda.
