OneCart invites suitably qualified applicants to apply for their Personal Shopper Vacancies. The closing date for applications is 4 July 2025.
Are you good with people, love shopping, and enjoy helping others? OneCart, South Africa’s trusted online shopping and delivery platform, is now looking for Personal Shoppers to join their growing team. If you have Matric, speak good English, and live near a OneCart-supported area, this could be your chance to earn and grow while doing something you love.
This is your opportunity to work for a fast-paced company that connects top stores with customers across the country. OneCart is calling on friendly, reliable, and detail-oriented people to become part of their in-store shopping team — no special training or degree needed.
What Does a Personal Shopper Do?
As a Personal Shopper (also called a concierge shopper), your job is to shop in-store on behalf of customers who place orders online. You’ll make sure their orders are picked out correctly, packaged neatly, and ready for delivery.
Here’s what your day might look like:
- Walking around the store selecting the exact items customers ordered.
- Checking expiry dates, quality, and packaging before you pack.
- Helping customers who ask for updates or product replacements.
- Answering questions and making smart decisions when an item is out of stock.
- Always being friendly, fast, and focused on accuracy.
If you’ve ever helped a friend shop or enjoyed comparing products at the store, you already have the mindset for this job.
Main Responsibilities
Your job as a Personal Shopper will include:
- Helping customers choose the right products through advice and service.
- Picking and scanning orders to prepare for fast delivery.
- Handling customer complaints with professionalism.
- Replacing unavailable products with suitable options.
- Following special instructions from customers closely.
- Working with store teams to make sure orders are completed on time.
- Keeping everything neat, accurate, and efficient.
- Following your manager’s instructions and helping teammates when needed.
You will be based in-store and expected to remain available during your entire shift.
Who Should Apply?
To be considered for this job, you must meet these minimum requirements:
- You must have a Matric / Grade 12 certificate.
- You need to be based near the store area you’re applying for.
- You must be fluent in English.
- You should be able to type clearly in full sentences (for order updates or messages).
This job is ideal for school leavers, job seekers, or anyone who enjoys retail, shopping, or working in a team environment.
Skills That Will Make You Stand Out
Even though experience isn’t required, the best Personal Shoppers have:
- Great attention to detail — you need to pick the right items every time.
- Good communication skills — customers trust you to keep them updated.
- A helpful and friendly personality — shoppers should enjoy working with you.
- Ability to stay calm when things get busy or something goes wrong.
- A team spirit — always ready to jump in and help others.
- A strong sense of responsibility — you’re handling people’s money and groceries.
If that sounds like you, you’re already ahead.
Why You Should Apply
- No prior experience needed — just Matric and a good attitude.
- Work in a fast-growing tech and retail space.
- Flexible job that can fit your lifestyle.
- Chance to gain customer service, retail, and logistics experience — great for your CV.
