Code 14 Car Carrier Driver – Experienced

You'll move heavy loads between Germiston and depots across the country for a cold-chain logistics fleet. If you learn fast and don't mind being shown things twice, you'll settle in within a few weeks.

The work is in Germiston, Gauteng, so you'll need a reliable way to get there every day. The first two weeks are spent shadowing someone experienced.
