Code 14 Car Carrier Driver

The road is your office with a cold-chain logistics fleet based in Lephalale, and the load gets there because of you. Good for someone who wants to build a solid track record they can put on their CV.

This post is in Lephalale (Limpopo). Please only apply if you can travel there daily. There's a probation period of three months before the contract is confirmed.
