Fleet Administrator (Licences and Services)

Get off the road and into the control office at a courier operations centre in Lephalale. Bring a calm head on busy days and you'll be fine.

Location: Lephalale, Limpopo. Applicants who already live in the area get looked at first. Weekend work is on a roster, so you won't be on every weekend.
