Dis-Chem Pharmacies Store Cleaners Vacancies

Dis-Chem Pharmacies invites suitably qualified applicants to apply for their Store Cleaner vacancies in Knysna. The closing date for applications is 07 November 2025. If you’re looking for a stable job where you can work with a trusted retail brand and take pride in keeping things spotless, this opportunity might be perfect for you.

Dis-Chem Pharmacies is one of South Africa’s most well-known health and beauty retailers, and they believe that cleanliness plays a huge role in delivering excellent customer service. They are now searching for dedicated, reliable, and hardworking cleaners to maintain the store’s hygiene standards. The selected candidate will make sure that every part of the store looks clean, neat, and welcoming — from the shop floor to the backrooms.

What This Job Is About

The store cleaner will play a key role in keeping the Knysna store safe and tidy for both customers and staff. Your main duty will be to ensure all store areas are kept in excellent condition according to Dis-Chem’s hygiene standards. You’ll be cleaning spaces such as the stockroom, dispensary, admin offices, and canteen. If you enjoy working in an organized environment and take pride in seeing things shine, this could be your next big move.

Minimum Requirements

To qualify for this position, you’ll need:

  • Grade 12 / Matric
  • At least 6 months of cleaning experience
  • A good command of the English language
  • Basic customer service skills
  • The ability to speak an additional language (advantageous in certain areas)
  • Willingness to work retail hours, including weekends and holidays

Having previous cleaning experience in a retail environment or being bilingual will give you an added advantage.

What You’ll Be Doing Every Day

Your daily duties will focus on keeping the store clean, comfortable, and professional. Here’s what you’ll be expected to handle:

  • Maintain a high standard of hygiene across all areas of the store, especially before opening.
  • Follow a cleaning routine to make sure every corner stays spotless throughout the day.
  • Ensure the canteen and restrooms are always clean and properly stocked with essentials.
  • Be available during working hours to clean up as needed.
  • Use the correct cleaning materials and tools for each task.
  • Always place the wet floor sign to keep customers safe while cleaning.
  • Maintain a friendly and professional attitude when dealing with customers and coworkers.
  • Follow Health and Safety regulations carefully.

What You Need to Succeed

Dis-Chem is looking for someone who’s not just hardworking, but also responsible and detail-oriented. You should have:

  • Previous cleaning experience
  • Good English communication (written and verbal)
  • Excellent customer service
  • Honesty and trustworthiness
  • Strong attention to detail
  • A neat and professional appearance
  • The ability to follow instructions and manage your time well

If you’ve cleaned in a store before or can speak more than one language, that’s a plus.

Working Conditions

This job requires someone who’s physically fit, as you’ll be standing, bending, lifting, and moving objects often. You should also:

  • Have reliable transport or live close to the Knysna store
  • Be a South African citizen
  • Have a clean criminal and credit record
  • Be available to work flexible hours, including weekends
