Job Description

Experienced Code 14 drivers are in short supply, and a cold-chain logistics fleet in Richards Bay is hiring. It suits someone who likes knowing exactly what a good day's work looks like.

The site is in Richards Bay; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying. Hours are mostly Monday to Friday, with the odd Saturday in busy months.

Carry out fuel stops with the fuel card and keep the slips
Follow hazchem rules, placards and emergency procedures on tanker loads
Drive planned routes and stop only at approved truck stops
Check the load is secured, strapped or sealed before leaving the depot
Log driving hours and take the required rest breaks

You'll need

Valid PrDP (G for goods, D for dangerous goods on tankers)
Medically fit, including eyesight
Valid Code 14 (EC) licence
Able to be away from home for several nights at a time

What's in it for you

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

How to apply

Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
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.
Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 9 working days.

Be honest about accidents or fines. Companies check your driving record anyway and trust drivers who tell them upfront.
