Driver's Assistant (Parcel Routes)

Trucks come in heavy and leave loaded at this parcel sorting hub in Pretoria West, and you move the stock in between. Expect to be trusted with real work from your first week.

The site is in Pretoria West; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying.
