Driver's Assistant (Parcel Routes)

You'll load and offload trucks at a container unpacking yard in Rosslyn so every delivery goes out full and correct. It's a practical job: you'll see what you got done before you go home.

The work is in Rosslyn, Gauteng, so you'll need a reliable way to get there every day. Shifts rotate, so you'll need to be flexible about days and nights.

• Sweep the bay and clear shrink-wrap after each loading
• Stack returns and empties neatly for the next count
• Load trucks from the load sheet in drop order, last stop first
• Check goods received against the delivery note and flag shorts
• Assemble or place furniture where the customer asks
• Offload containers by hand, counting cartons as they come off
• Guide trucks reversing into the bay with hand signals

• Grade 9 or higher and able to read a delivery note
• Able to lift and carry heavy items all day
• Friendly with customers at the door
• 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

• Help to get your own licence through the company later
• Route-completion incentives in busy months
• Uniform and safety shoes provided

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