Careers

At Jameson Tools, we work with people who understand tools, trades and the pressure of a busy workshop. Based in Pinetown, Durban, we support customers across South Africa with practical service, honest advice and steady follow-through.

Careers

What Working Here Feels Like

We are a local trade supplier with a practical pace of work and a clear standard: if a customer needs the right tool, the right kit or the right advice, we make it happen properly. Our team works with workshops, contractors, DIY users and training groups across Pinetown, New Germany, Westmead, Hillcrest, Durban North and Umhlanga. It is hands-on work with real responsibility, not just admin for the sake of admin.

People who do well here are organised, steady under pressure and willing to learn the details behind hand tools, power-tool accessories, starter kits and workshop planning. You might be helping a trade customer replace worn consumables, matching a tool to a job, or preparing a courier order for delivery to another province.

Roles We Commonly Hire For

We do not always recruit for the same post, but we regularly look for people who can strengthen our sales, operations, support and training work. Some roles are customer-facing and some happen behind the scenes. If you have experience in a workshop, trade counter, warehouse, courier coordination or training support, we want to hear from you.

  • Customer support and order handling
  • Trade counter sales and product advice
  • Warehouse, picking and stock control
  • Courier coordination and dispatch support
  • Technical sales and workshop solutions
  • Training coordination and induction support

Skills That Help You Fit In

We value practical people who can work neatly, communicate clearly and keep to deadlines. You do not need to know everything on day one, but you must be willing to learn, ask questions and follow procedures. In a trade environment, small mistakes can cost time and money so accuracy matters.

  • Good telephone and email manners
  • Basic computer and admin skills
  • Ability to handle stock lists and order notes
  • Comfort with a busy, physical workplace
  • Interest in tools, fittings and workshop use

Training, Guidance And Growth

We place real value on training. Our team supports customers with tool kit planning, on-site tool inductions and workshop setup advice, and we expect the same commitment internally. New team members are shown how our product range, stock flow and customer service processes work. You will not be left guessing.

There is room to grow if you show initiative. Someone may start in support or dispatch and move into sales, workshop solutions or training coordination over time. We like people who take ownership, learn the range and improve their knowledge steadily.

How To Send Your CV

If you would like to join us, email your CV to orders@jameson.co.za and include a short note telling us what type of role you are looking for. Please mention your current location, experience and whether you are applying for sales, support, workshop, warehouse or training work.

If you have trade experience, list the tools, accessories or workshop areas you know best. If you have worked with courier dispatch, retail stock or customer accounts, say so clearly. We review applications as they come in and will contact suitable candidates when a role matches their background.

Why People Choose To Apply

People often look for work where their effort is visible and useful. That is what this environment offers. Orders must be packed correctly, stock must be counted, customers must be helped and workshops must be supported without fuss. It is straightforward work, but it matters.

We are a local team with national reach, and that means good systems, direct communication and respect for the people doing the work. If you are after a place where practical skill counts and where a steady hand is appreciated, this may be a good fit.
