Dispatch Assistant (Building Materials) – Immediate Start

Delivery days start early in Sandton, and a parcel sorting hub needs you on the bay before the trucks roll. This is a good step for someone who wants proper routine and a manager who notices good work.

This post is in Sandton (Gauteng). Please only apply if you can travel there daily.

• Offload containers by hand, counting cartons as they come off
• Sweep the bay and clear shrink-wrap after each loading
• Strap and secure loads so nothing shifts in transit
• Load trucks from the load sheet in drop order, last stop first
• Ride with the driver and carry goods into customers' premises
• Stack returns and empties neatly for the next count
• Assemble or place furniture where the customer asks

• No criminal record
• Friendly with customers at the door
• Able to lift and carry heavy items all day
• Honest; you will be handling customer goods and cash-on-delivery slips
• Comfortable starting from 04:00 or working late loading shifts

• A Code 8 or Code 10 licence (a route to becoming a driver)
• Speaking more than one local language for customer drops
• Past work as a driver's assistant

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

• 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.
