Driver's Assistant (Parcel Routes)

Strong back, sharp eyes on the load sheet: that is what a cement and brick yard in Vanderbijlpark wants. It's a practical job: you'll see what you got done before you go home.

You'll report in Vanderbijlpark. Relocation is not covered for this one. Start date: as soon as possible for the right person.

• Willing to travel on routes that return late
• Comfortable starting from 04:00 or working late loading shifts

• No criminal record

• Meal allowance on long-route days
• Help to get your own licence through the company later
