Job Description

You'll move heavy loads between Cape Town CBD and depots across the country for a cold-chain logistics fleet. It's the kind of job where doing the basics well every day gets you noticed.

Home base is a cold-chain logistics fleet on the Cape Town CBD side of Western Cape. Weekend work is on a roster, so you won't be on every weekend.

The work, day to day

  • Check the load is secured, strapped or sealed before leaving the depot
  • Keep the cab clean and report defects at the end of each trip
  • Do a full pre-trip inspection: tyres, brakes, lights, couplings and fluids
  • Check reefer temperatures and record them on cold-chain loads
  • Follow hazchem rules, placards and emergency procedures on tanker loads

What you need

  • Passport for cross-border routes
  • At least 3 years on Code 14 trucks
  • Valid PrDP (G for goods, D for dangerous goods on tankers)
  • Clean criminal record
  • Able to be away from home for several nights at a time

Helpful, not essential

  • Knowledge of SADC border routes
  • Clean record on a telematics driving score

What's in it for you

  • Provident fund and medical aid option
  • Paid PrDP renewal
  • Well-maintained trucks with sleeper cabs
  • Overnight and subsistence allowance on trips

Applying, step by step

  1. Make sure the role, the hours and working in Cape Town CBD really suit you before you apply.
  2. Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: dangerous goods certificate if you have one, Code 14 licence card and PrDP (both sides copied) plus passport copy for cross-border work.
  3. Use the form on this page. It takes about two minutes and you don't need to upload anything yet.
  4. Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 10 working days.

Your application joins the How2Apply talent pool for this role, and we put shortlisted people forward to employers hiring in and around Cape Town CBD.

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

  • Expect a driving test with a real truck. Arrive rested and do your pre-trip check out loud so the assessor sees it.
  • List the trailer types and routes you have done, for example "tautliner, JHB to Durban, 4 years".
