Job Description

For a courier depot in Somerset West, fast and careful deliveries keep customers coming back. You'll work with a small crew, so being easy to work with matters as much as skill.

Home base is a courier depot on the Somerset West side of Western Cape. Hours are mostly Monday to Friday, with the odd Saturday in busy months.

The work, day to day

Scan parcels on delivery and take a photo or signature
Load parcels in route order from the depot scanning area
Deliver chronic medication to patients' homes and confirm ID
Bank cheques, post documents and run office errands
Keep your vehicle or bike clean and report faults

Must-haves

Able to work Saturdays
Polite with customers at the door
Smartphone and comfortable using delivery apps
At least 1 year of driving experience
Good sense of direction and map reading
Valid Code 8 (B) licence, or A licence for motorbike roles

On offer

Company van, bakkie or scooter provided
Branded uniform and rain gear
Per-drop incentive on busy days

Applying, step by step

Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): certified ID and a recent proof of address, a CV with any delivery or courier work plus Code 8 or motorbike licence copy.
Use the form on this page. It takes about two minutes and you don't need to upload anything yet.
Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 7 working days.

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

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

If you have a clean driving record, write "no accidents, no traffic fines" plainly. It is what recruiters look for.
For owner-driver jobs, list your vehicle's make, year and load size. They hire the vehicle as much as the driver.
