Job Description

You'll move heavy loads between eMalahleni and depots across the country for a cross-border transport company. This role rewards consistency more than flash.

  • Defensive driving course

On offer

  • Well-maintained trucks with sleeper cabs
  • Paid PrDP renewal

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): dangerous goods certificate if you have one plus Code 14 licence card and PrDP (both sides copied).
  3. Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
  4. Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 8 working days.
