Bring your skills as a Transport Planner to Vryburg and join a team that moves fast. This North West role is one to watch.
The Role
An experienced Transport Planner is needed to support operations in Vryburg. The role forms part of how the business keeps its logistics jobs portfolio strong in North West.
Communication runs both ways. Managers across the logistics jobs team in North West make time for one-to-ones, and people are expected to speak up early when something needs attention.

Reasonable working hours and respectful planning are part of how the role runs. The team values strong delivery, and load is balanced fairly across the logistics jobs group in Vryburg.

What Your Day Looks Like
Your day kicks off in the yard or at the dock, checking schedules, briefing your team and lining up the day’s priorities. You move between receiving, picking, dispatch and the WMS, keeping a close eye on accuracy and time slots. There are constant conversations — with drivers, controllers, customers and the warehouse floor — and the better you communicate, the smoother things run. By the end of the shift, the racks are tidy, the trucks are out, and the next inbound load is already on its way.
On top of that, the rhythm rewards people who plan ahead but also pivot quickly when North West operations throw up the unexpected.
Crucially, the Vryburg office buzzes through peak hours and settles into focused, productive lulls in between, giving you time to plan and reset before the next stretch of work.
No two days look exactly the same — and that variety is part of what keeps the role engaging for the right candidate in Vryburg.
