Job Description

You'll load and offload trucks at a beverage depot in Coega so every delivery goes out full and correct. It's a practical job: you'll see what you got done before you go home.

This post is Coega-based, with most of your time spent at a beverage depot.

What you'll actually do

  • Guide trucks reversing into the bay with hand signals
  • Stack returns and empties neatly for the next count
  • Assemble or place furniture where the customer asks
  • Sweep the bay and clear shrink-wrap after each loading
  • Strap and secure loads so nothing shifts in transit

You'll need

  • Comfortable starting from 04:00 or working late loading shifts
  • Honest; you will be handling customer goods and cash-on-delivery slips
  • Grade 9 or higher and able to read a delivery note
  • No criminal record
  • Able to lift and carry heavy items all day
  • Willing to travel on routes that return late

Nice if you have

  • Speaking more than one local language for customer drops
  • Basic furniture assembly skills

On offer

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

How to apply

  1. Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
  2. Keep copies of these ready to send: police clearance if you already have one, CV noting any loading, moving or delivery work plus clear copy of your ID with a certification stamp.
  3. Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
  4. Watch for a call or WhatsApp from How2Apply over the next 6 working days.

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