Job Description

You'll move heavy loads between Bellville and depots across the country for a long-haul freight fleet. If you turn up on time and finish what you start, you'll fit in quickly.

Home base is a long-haul freight fleet on the Bellville side of Western Cape. Shifts rotate, so you'll need to be flexible about days and nights.

What you'll actually do

  • 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
  • Keep the logbook and tachograph or telematics records up to date
  • Do a full pre-trip inspection: tyres, brakes, lights, couplings and fluids
  • Report breakdowns, delays and incidents to the controller immediately

What you need

  • Medically fit, including eyesight
  • Able to be away from home for several nights at a time
  • Clean driving record with no serious accidents
  • Passport for cross-border routes
  • At least 3 years on Code 14 trucks

What's in it for you

  • Paid PrDP renewal
  • Provident fund and medical aid option
  • Monthly safe-driving and fuel-saving bonus
  • Well-maintained trucks with sleeper cabs

How to apply

  1. Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
  2. Keep copies of these ready to send: passport copy for cross-border work, reference letters from previous transport companies 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. If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 10 working days, usually by phone.
