Truck Mechanic (Fleet Workshop)

Keep trucks on the road and earning at the truck dealership workshop in Boksburg. Good for someone who wants to build a solid track record they can put on their CV.

The site is in Boksburg; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying. Weekend work is on a roster, so you won't be on every weekend.
