Job Description

You'll move heavy loads between Bethlehem and depots across the country for a cross-border transport company. You don't need to be the loudest person in the room, just the one others can count on.

Home base is a cross-border transport company on the Bethlehem side of Free State.

What you'll actually do

Complete border paperwork at Beitbridge, Lebombo or other posts
Deliver to customers and get proof-of-delivery signed and stamped
Keep the logbook and tachograph or telematics records up to date
Keep the cab clean and report defects at the end of each trip
Check the load is secured, strapped or sealed before leaving the depot
Check reefer temperatures and record them on cold-chain loads

Must-haves

Passport for cross-border routes
At least 3 years on Code 14 trucks
Valid PrDP (G for goods, D for dangerous goods on tankers)
Able to be away from home for several nights at a time
Clean driving record with no serious accidents

Helpful, not essential

Defensive driving course
Dangerous goods training certificate
Knowledge of SADC border routes

What's in it for you

Monthly safe-driving and fuel-saving bonus
Overnight and subsistence allowance on trips
Well-maintained trucks with sleeper cabs
Provident fund and medical aid option

How to apply

Make sure the role, the hours and working in Bethlehem really suit you before you apply.
Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): reference letters from previous transport companies plus dangerous goods certificate if you have one.
Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 9 working days, usually by phone.

How2Apply recruits for this position on behalf of hiring employers around Bethlehem; applications go into our talent pool and shortlisted candidates are introduced directly.

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.

Tips to get shortlisted

Put your licence code, PrDP expiry date and years on Code 14 in the first three lines. Transport managers scan for those first.
Expect a driving test with a real truck. Arrive rested and do your pre-trip check out loud so the assessor sees it.
