Job Description

You'll load and offload trucks at a furniture retailer warehouse in Worcester so every delivery goes out full and correct. You'll work with a small crew, so being easy to work with matters as much as skill.

Home base is a furniture retailer warehouse on the Worcester side of Western Cape.

What you'll actually do

  • Ride with the driver and carry goods into customers' premises
  • Check goods received against the delivery note and flag shorts
  • Strap and secure loads so nothing shifts in transit
  • Load trucks from the load sheet in drop order, last stop first
  • Guide trucks reversing into the bay with hand signals

You'll need

  • Grade 9 or higher and able to read a delivery note
  • Willing to travel on routes that return late
  • No criminal record
  • Friendly with customers at the door
  • Comfortable starting from 04:00 or working late loading shifts
  • Able to lift and carry heavy items all day

Extra points for

  • A Code 8 or Code 10 licence (a route to becoming a driver)
  • Speaking more than one local language for customer drops

What's in it for you

  • Uniform and safety shoes provided
  • Meal allowance on long-route days
  • Help to get your own licence through the company later
  • Route-completion incentives in busy months

How to apply for this job

  1. Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): clear copy of your ID with a certification stamp plus police clearance if you already have one.
  3. Use the form on this page. It takes about two minutes and you don't need to upload anything yet.
  4. If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 5 working days, usually by phone.

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.

Tips to get shortlisted

  • Keep your CV to one page with your phone number big and clear. Depot managers phone, they seldom email.
  • If you are learning to drive, mention it. Depots like to grow assistants into drivers.
