Job Description

San Won, part of Sanford’s business, is looking for a reliable Storeperson to join our logistics team in Timaru. Our team helps get quality New Zealand seafood to the world by safely storing and moving products from our vessels and processing plant.

Working Monday to Friday, 7:00am - 4:30pm, you’ll support the storage, movement and loading of seafood products. This is a physical role involving forklift operation and manual stacking, so you’ll need to be reasonably fit and comfortable working in a cold environment.

What you'll be doing:

Safely operating forklifts and other equipment to move product to designated locations

Manually stacking and handling product

Supporting storage, loading and stock movement activities

Completing stock movements accurately and on time

Maintaining product quality, hygiene and cold chain standards

Reporting hazards, equipment issues and product quality concerns

Working with the wider logistics and operations teams to keep things running smoothly

What we're looking for:

You’ll be a dependable team player who enjoys practical work, follows instructions and takes pride in doing the job safely.

Ideally, you’ll bring

Previous experience in logistics, warehousing or a similar environment

A Forklift Operator Certificate (FOC) is preferred

A reasonable level of fitness for manual stacking and product handling

Confidence working in a cold storage environment

Good attention to detail and time management

* A positive attitude, clear communication and willingness to help your teammates

Why join us?

Join a team that plays an important part in Sanford’s seafood operations, with a consistent weekday schedule and practical work where your contribution matters. You’ll be part of a business with a proud seafood history and a focus on safety, quality and continuous improvement. If you’re comfortable in the cold, enjoy physical work and work well as part of a team, we’d love to hear from you.

For consideration, you will need to be eligible to work in New Zealand. As part of our recruitment process, pre-employment checks may include a criminal history check, drug and alcohol testing and a medical assessment.
