Driver's Assistant (Parcel Routes)

Strong back, sharp eyes on the load sheet: that is what a beverage depot in Kuruman wants. People who do well here are steady, honest and not scared to ask when something is unclear.

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

• Offload containers by hand, counting cartons as they come off
• Load trucks from the load sheet in drop order, last stop first
• Get proof-of-delivery notes signed and stamped at each drop
• Ride with the driver and carry goods into customers' premises
• 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

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

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

• Say what hours you can start. Loading bays often hire the person who can be there at 04:00 without fail.
• Keep your CV to one page with your phone number big and clear. Depot managers phone, they seldom email.
