Job Description

You'll zip parcels, spares or documents around East London for an engineering firm, all day, all over town. It's a practical job: you'll see what you got done before you go home.

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

What your day looks like

  • Scan parcels on delivery and take a photo or signature
  • Bank cheques, post documents and run office errands
  • Return undelivered parcels to the depot with a reason code
  • Fill up the vehicle and keep fuel slips for the logbook
  • Collect spares and parts from suppliers and bring them to the workshop
  • Phone customers when the address is hard to find
  • Keep your vehicle or bike clean and report faults

What you need

  • Clean driving record and no criminal record
  • Good sense of direction and map reading
  • Able to work Saturdays
  • Smartphone and comfortable using delivery apps
  • Polite with customers at the door
  • Valid Code 8 (B) licence, or A licence for motorbike roles

What's in it for you

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

How to apply for this job

  1. Make sure the role, the hours and working in East London really suit you before you apply.
  2. Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: certified ID and a recent proof of address plus Code 8 or motorbike licence copy.

  4. Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 6 working days.

How to stand out

  • Say you have a smartphone and know delivery apps. Most courier jobs now run through an app and training time is short.
