Job Description

Trucks come in heavy and leave loaded at this parcel sorting hub in Mbombela, and you move the stock in between. It's a practical job: you'll see what you got done before you go home.

You'll be based at a parcel sorting hub in Mbombela. Living nearby, or on a taxi route to it, really helps.

What you'll actually do

  • Stack returns and empties neatly for the next count
  • Ride with the driver and carry goods into customers' premises
  • Guide trucks reversing into the bay with hand signals
  • Strap and secure loads so nothing shifts in transit
  • Get proof-of-delivery notes signed and stamped at each drop
  • Assemble or place furniture where the customer asks

What you need

  • No criminal record
  • Grade 9 or higher and able to read a delivery note
  • Willing to travel on routes that return late
  • Friendly with customers at the door
  • Honest; you will be handling customer goods and cash-on-delivery slips

Extra points for

  • Past work as a driver's assistant
  • A Code 8 or Code 10 licence (a route to becoming a driver)
  • Basic furniture assembly skills

What you get

  • Help to get your own licence through the company later
  • Route-completion incentives in busy months
  • Uniform and safety shoes provided
  • Meal allowance on long-route days

Applying, step by step

  1. Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
  2. Keep copies of these ready to send: police clearance if you already have one plus CV noting any loading, moving or delivery work.
  3. Use the form on this page. It takes about two minutes and you don't need to upload anything yet.
  4. If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 10 working days, usually by phone.

Applying is free. Nobody from How2Apply will ever ask you to pay for anything to get this job.

Tips to get shortlisted

  • If you are learning to drive, mention it. Depots like to grow assistants into drivers.
  • Say what hours you can start. Loading bays often hire the person who can be there at 04:00 without fail.
