How to apply

Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: police clearance if you already have one, CV noting any loading, moving or delivery work plus clear copy of your ID with a certification stamp.
Fill in the short form below with your name and a phone number you actually answer.
If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 10 working days, usually by phone.

Your application joins the How2Apply talent pool for this role, and we put shortlisted people forward to employers hiring in and around Tzaneen.

How2Apply never charges you to apply, for training, for uniforms or for a "placement fee". If anyone asks you for money, it is a scam.

How to stand out

Keep your CV to one page with your phone number big and clear. Depot managers phone, they seldom email.
If you are learning to drive, mention it. Depots like to grow assistants into drivers.
