Job Description

The road is your office with a fuel distribution fleet based in Germiston, and the load gets there because of you. Good for someone who wants to build a solid track record they can put on their CV.

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

What you'll actually do

  • Report breakdowns, delays and incidents to the controller immediately
  • Deliver to customers and get proof-of-delivery signed and stamped
  • Do a full pre-trip inspection: tyres, brakes, lights, couplings and fluids
  • Log driving hours and take the required rest breaks
  • Check reefer temperatures and record them on cold-chain loads
  • Follow hazchem rules, placards and emergency procedures on tanker loads
  • Keep the cab clean and report defects at the end of each trip

You'll need

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

Helpful, not essential

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

What's in it for you

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

How to apply

  1. Make sure the role, the hours and working in Germiston really suit you before you apply.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): dangerous goods certificate if you have one, reference letters from previous transport companies plus Code 14 licence card and PrDP (both sides copied).
  3. Fill in the short form below with your name and a phone number you actually answer.
  4. Watch for a call or WhatsApp from How2Apply over the next 9 working days.

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

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.

Before you hit apply

  • Put your licence code, PrDP expiry date and years on Code 14 in the first three lines. Transport managers scan for those first.
  • Expect a driving test with a real truck. Arrive rested and do your pre-trip check out loud so the assessor sees it.
