Cashier Jobs in Gauteng

Pepkor Lifestyle · Gauteng
Mid Level

Customer service desk in a store

Pepkor Lifestyle is looking for a Cashier in Gauteng, with applications closing on 28 December 2026. This contract role is the primary point of contact at the till points of a retail store, responsible for accurately processing point-of-sale transactions and maintaining store security standards, with support for cellular, credit and service administration during quieter periods.

About the company and the work

Pepkor Lifestyle gives value-conscious mass-market customers the opportunity and means to create a comfortable lifestyle, with brands providing quality, value-for-money furniture, appliances and household goods. The Cashier is the face of the store at the till: the person customers meet when they pay, ask for help with credit or cellular products, or bring an item in for repair.

Role details and duties

The duties fall into five areas. Point of sale and cash management: accurately process all point-of-sale transactions and cash ups in strict compliance with company policies and procedures; capture manual invoices electronically within 24 hours and attach electronic invoices to manual book copies; actively promote and achieve targets for add-on sales on all customer purchases; maintain and update TV licence registers and process TV licence purchases according to company regulations; and balance cash ups and floats against system totals in the presence of a Supervisor or Manager, ensuring float seals are checked and secured at shift ends. Operational support and security: ensure all till points and workstations are secure, clean and ready for trading; lock till points when unattended and update till passwords weekly; deactivate merchandise tags upon customer checkout and verify cash and credit cards using UV light checks; conduct credit card security checks, ensure item counts match invoice totals, and report any suspicious activities or shoplifting to management and security; and answer incoming calls within three rings using company standard greetings, taking accurate messages and transferring calls appropriately. Customer service: provide exceptional, customer-centric service in alignment with the company service code; handle customer complaints efficiently and timeously, escalating issues to line management when required; and ensure compliance with all consumer protection and retail legislation. Cellular, credit and value-added services: assist customers with completing credit and cellular application forms, verifying supporting documentation in line with policy; scan and submit completed credit and cellular agreements and provide customers with copies; drive cellular, credit and lay-by sales activities to meet monthly volume and target metrics; and offer value-added services such as extended warranties and insurance products. Customer repairs co-ordination: receive, log and dispatch customer repair items to authorised repair agents or vendors according to service level agreements; inform customers clearly regarding estimated repair turnaround times and follow up on repairs pending over seven days; and ensure repair stock is safely stored in designated secured areas to minimise damaged or distressed stock write-offs.

Requirements

The requirements listed are a Grade 12 or Matric certificate; 2 to 3 years of experience in a retail environment; and practical experience in financial administration or cash handling roles. The advert also heads a Technical Skills section, but no items were visible under that heading in the page view, so please confirm any technical requirements in the original advert before applying. Only what the source states is listed here.

Where to find and apply safely

This vacancy is advertised on Careers24 by Pepkor Lifestyle, and the Apply button on this page takes you directly to the original advert. Apply only through that original listing, and be wary of anyone asking you to pay a fee to secure a job, as legitimate employers do not charge jobseekers for applications.

Practical tips

Highlight your till and cash-handling experience, your accuracy with cash ups and floats, and any work you have done with credit or cellular applications. Show your Grade 12 clearly on your CV, and be ready to give examples of handling difficult customers and spotting suspicious transactions.
