Job Description

Experienced Code 14 drivers are in short supply, and a coal haulage contractor in George is hiring. This is a good step for someone who wants proper routine and a manager who notices good work.

Location: George, Western Cape. Applicants who already live in the area get looked at first.

What your day looks like

  • Check reefer temperatures and record them on cold-chain loads
  • Check the load is secured, strapped or sealed before leaving the depot
  • Do a full pre-trip inspection: tyres, brakes, lights, couplings and fluids
  • Follow hazchem rules, placards and emergency procedures on tanker loads
  • Log driving hours and take the required rest breaks
  • Keep the logbook and tachograph or telematics records up to date
  • Deliver to customers and get proof-of-delivery signed and stamped

What you need

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

Helpful, not essential

  • Experience on a specific trailer type (tanker, tipper, reefer)
  • Clean record on a telematics driving score
  • Knowledge of SADC border routes

What you get

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