Shift Supervisor

Role: Shift Supervisor. Location: Kempton Park, Gauteng. The team is hiring and seeks a candidate who can step in and deliver from week one.

Overview

This Shift Supervisor role sits within the retail jobs function in Kempton Park. It offers a defined scope, clear measures of success, and the support of an experienced team across Gauteng.

Expect a structured first ninety days, with onboarding milestones, regular check-ins, and an early focus on getting comfortable with the systems and processes that underpin the Kempton Park team.

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 Kempton Park teams, and the new Shift Supervisor will feel that from the first week.

The role has been written to be sustainable, not just busy. Strong output is expected, and managers in Kempton Park also pay attention to recovery, learning and the kind of breathing room that keeps people doing good work over time.

Based in Kempton Park

Working in Kempton Park means a place near the Midrand technology hub, with a steady flow of activity and a strong local economy. The team has built solid relationships across the Gauteng region, and the Kempton Park office benefits from those long-standing connections.

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

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

A Typical Day

Your day usually starts before the doors open, walking the floor, checking displays and making sure tills are float-ready. As customers arrive, you switch into service mode, moving between till points, fitting rooms and the stockroom, helping shoppers find what they need and keeping a quiet eye on shrinkage. By the afternoon, you might be receiving a delivery, training a new team member or planning the next promotion, and by close of business you’re cashing up, balancing reports and getting the store ready to do it all again tomorrow.

Beyond that, the Kempton Park 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.

Beyond that, the rhythm rewards people who plan ahead but also pivot quickly when Gauteng 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 Kempton Park.

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 Kempton Park.

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.

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

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

Why This Role

You will join a team that values respectful collaboration, honest feedback and shared wins. The Kempton Park colleagues take pride in supporting one another and in doing the retail 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 Kempton Park keep progressing.

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