Driver's Assistant (Parcel Routes) – Fixed-Term

Trucks come in heavy and leave loaded at this container unpacking yard in Mossel Bay, and you move the stock in between. It's the kind of job where doing the basics well every day gets you noticed.

This post is Mossel Bay-based, with most of your time spent at a container unpacking yard. Start date: as soon as possible for the right person.

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

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

• A Code 8 or Code 10 licence (a route to becoming a driver)
• Basic furniture assembly skills

• Help to get your own licence through the company later
• Uniform and safety shoes provided
• Meal allowance on long-route days
• 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.
