Hygiene Cleaner (Food Factory Night Crew)

R 6,500 - 8,000 per month
Full-time

How2Apply Talent Network

This position requires local presence. Please view similar jobs below.

When production stops at a poultry processing plant in Richards Bay, your crew moves in and cleans everything down. Expect to be trusted with real work from your first week.

The work is in Richards Bay, KwaZulu-Natal, so you'll need a reliable way to get there every day. Shifts rotate, so you'll need to be flexible about days and nights.

What your day looks like

  • Strip down and wash production equipment after the last run
  • Shampoo carpets and upholstery with an extraction machine
  • Clean drains and grease traps in commercial kitchens
  • Clear builders' dust, paint and cement off floors and windows after construction
  • Store chemicals in the locked chemical store with safety data sheets
  • Test sanitiser strength with test strips and record the reading
  • Run a high-pressure washer on grease, oil and slurry build-up

What you need

  • Grade 10 or better; you must read chemical labels and safety data sheets
  • Reliable, as crews are small and each person counts
  • Not scared of heights for window or rope crews
  • Able to pass a medical fitness check for plant work
  • Physically strong for wet, heavy work

Nice if you have

  • Experience using a high-pressure washer or carpet extractor
  • A Code 8 licence to drive the crew bakkie

What you get

  • Full PPE: waterproof suits, boots, goggles and respirators
  • Paid training on machines and chemicals
  • Higher hourly rate than standard cleaning
  • Night-shift and standby allowances

How to apply

  1. Make sure the role, the hours and working in Richards Bay really suit you before you apply.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): recent medical fitness certificate if you have one, copy of your South African ID plus machine, chemical or heights certificates.
  3. Fill in the short form below with your name and a phone number you actually answer.
  4. Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 5 working days.

How2Apply recruits for this position on behalf of hiring employers around Richards Bay; applications go into our talent pool and shortlisted candidates are introduced directly.

How2Apply never charges you to apply, for training, for uniforms or for a "placement fee". If anyone asks you for money, it is a scam.

Before you hit apply

  • Put the machines and chemicals you have used at the top of your CV. Industrial cleaning companies hire on skills, not just willingness.
  • Say you are available for night and shutdown work. That is when most factory hygiene cleaning happens.
