Job Description

Long hours, clean record, safe arrival every time: that is what a cross-border transport company in Soweto pays for. If you turn up on time and finish what you start, you'll fit in quickly.

The work is in Soweto, Gauteng, so you'll need a reliable way to get there every day.

  • Keep the cab clean and report defects at the end of each trip

You'll need

  • Valid PrDP (G for goods, D for dangerous goods on tankers)
  • Passport for cross-border routes
  • Valid Code 14 (EC) licence
  • Able to be away from home for several nights at a time
  • At least 3 years on Code 14 trucks

Extra points for

  • Experience on a specific trailer type (tanker, tipper, reefer)
  • Clean record on a telematics driving score
  • Dangerous goods training certificate

What's in it for you

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

Applying, step by step

  1. Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): dangerous goods certificate if you have one plus passport copy for cross-border work.
  3. Fill in the short form below with your name and a phone number you actually answer.
  4. If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 6 working days, usually by phone.
