Job Description

Long hours, clean record, safe arrival every time: that is what a long-haul freight fleet in Somerset West pays for. If you turn up on time and finish what you start, you'll fit in quickly.

The site is in Somerset West; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying.

The work, day to day

Report breakdowns, delays and incidents to the controller immediately
Keep the logbook and tachograph or telematics records up to date
Keep the cab clean and report defects at the end of each trip
Log driving hours and take the required rest breaks
Complete border paperwork at Beitbridge, Lebombo or other posts
Drive planned routes and stop only at approved truck stops
Check reefer temperatures and record them on cold-chain loads

You'll need

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

What's in it for you

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

Applying, step by step

Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: reference letters from previous transport companies, dangerous goods certificate if you have one plus passport copy for cross-border work.
Fill in the short form below with your name and a phone number you actually answer.
If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 10 working days, usually by phone.

How to stand out

Be honest about accidents or fines. Companies check your driving record anyway and trust drivers who tell them upfront.
Put your licence code, PrDP expiry date and years on Code 14 in the first three lines. Transport managers scan for those first.
