Job Description

You'll zip parcels, spares or documents around Cape Town CBD for a motor spares shop, all day, all over town. Good for someone who wants to build a solid track record they can put on their CV.

You'll be based at a motor spares shop in Cape Town CBD. Living nearby, or on a taxi route to it, really helps. Shifts rotate, so you'll need to be flexible about days and nights.

What you'll actually do

  • Follow the delivery app for route and stop order
  • Keep your vehicle or bike clean and report faults
  • Phone customers when the address is hard to find
  • Scan parcels on delivery and take a photo or signature
  • Bank cheques, post documents and run office errands

What you need

  • Polite with customers at the door
  • Able to work Saturdays
  • Smartphone and comfortable using delivery apps
  • Good sense of direction and map reading

Helpful, not essential

  • PrDP for staff shuttle posts
  • Knowledge of the city's industrial areas
  • Your own reliable bakkie or bike for owner-driver contracts

What's in it for you

  • Per-drop incentive on busy days
  • Fuel card for work trips
  • Branded uniform and rain gear
  • Company van, bakkie or scooter provided

How to apply for this job

  1. Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): certified ID and a recent proof of address, a CV with any delivery or courier work plus Code 8 or motorbike licence copy.
  3. Use the form on this page. It takes about two minutes and you don't need to upload anything yet.
  4. Watch for a call or WhatsApp from How2Apply over the next 6 working days.

Tips to get shortlisted
