Code 14 Refrigerated Truck Driver

You'll move heavy loads between Ballito and depots across the country for a coal haulage contractor. If you like clear targets and knowing where you stand, this is for you.

You'll report in Ballito. Relocation is not covered for this one. Shifts rotate, so you'll need to be flexible about days and nights.

• Do a full pre-trip inspection: tyres, brakes, lights, couplings and fluids
• Drive planned routes and stop only at approved truck stops
• Check the load is secured, strapped or sealed before leaving the depot
• Complete border paperwork at Beitbridge, Lebombo or other posts
• Follow hazchem rules, placards and emergency procedures on tanker loads
• Log driving hours and take the required rest breaks

• Able to be away from home for several nights at a time
• Clean driving record with no serious accidents
• Passport for cross-border routes
• At least 3 years on Code 14 trucks
• Valid Code 14 (EC) licence

• Paid PrDP renewal
• Provident fund and medical aid option
• Monthly safe-driving and fuel-saving bonus
• Overnight and subsistence allowance on trips

• 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".
