Job Description

Experienced Code 14 drivers are in short supply, and a coal haulage contractor in East London is hiring. It's the kind of job where doing the basics well every day gets you noticed.

This post is in East London (Eastern Cape). Please only apply if you can travel there daily.

The work, day to day

  • Check the load is secured, strapped or sealed before leaving the depot
  • Deliver to customers and get proof-of-delivery signed and stamped
  • Complete border paperwork at Beitbridge, Lebombo or other posts
  • Keep the cab clean and report defects at the end of each trip
  • Carry out fuel stops with the fuel card and keep the slips

Must-haves

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

What's in it for you

  • Paid PrDP renewal
  • Well-maintained trucks with sleeper cabs
  • Overnight and subsistence allowance on trips
  • Provident fund and medical aid option

How to apply

  1. Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): passport copy for cross-border work plus reference letters from previous transport companies.
  3. Use the form on this page. It takes about two minutes and you don't need to upload anything yet.
  4. If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 6 working days, usually by phone.

Your application joins the How2Apply talent pool for this role, and we put shortlisted people forward to employers hiring in and around East London.

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.

How to stand out

  • Expect a driving test with a real truck. Arrive rested and do your pre-trip check out loud so the assessor sees it.
  • Be honest about accidents or fines. Companies check your driving record anyway and trust drivers who tell them upfront.
