Driver's Assistant (Parcel Routes)

You'll load and offload trucks at a beverage depot in Mbombela so every delivery goes out full and correct. Someone who likes a bit of variety, but also likes doing things the right way, will enjoy this.

You'll report in Mbombela. Relocation is not covered for this one. You'll start with a short induction before working on your own.

• Ride with the driver and carry goods into customers' premises
• Sweep the bay and clear shrink-wrap after each loading
• Assemble or place furniture where the customer asks
• Strap and secure loads so nothing shifts in transit
• Get proof-of-delivery notes signed and stamped at each drop

• Able to lift and carry heavy items all day
• Friendly with customers at the door
• Willing to travel on routes that return late
• Grade 9 or higher and able to read a delivery note

• Basic furniture assembly skills
• Past work as a driver's assistant

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

• 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.
