Listing live now. We believe great workplaces are built on great people. We are looking for a Fleet Controller in Christiana, and we encourage applicants from across North West to consider this opportunity.

About This Position

The organisation is investing in its Christiana operation, and this Fleet Controller position reflects that commitment. The successful candidate will work across the logistics jobs function and contribute to the wider North West business.

On top of that, the successful applicant is given the room to plan, deliver and review their work without unnecessary noise. The organisation has built its Christiana team on trust, and the Fleet Controller role will feel that from week one.

Tools, systems and information are there to support the role rather than slow it down. The company continues to invest in the technology that backs its Christiana teams, and the new Fleet Controller will feel that from the first week.

Stakeholders for this position include line managers, peers across the logistics jobs team and trusted external partners. Building those relationships early makes the next twelve months in Christiana much easier.

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 Christiana.

Growing With Us

Career progression here is real, not a slogan. The logistics jobs space in Christiana offers a clear runway from delivery into team leadership and beyond, and managers sit down with each team member regularly to map out the next step in North West.

Growth conversations happen at a regular cadence — not just at year-end — so the path forward stays current and realistic for every Christiana team member.

Internal mobility is encouraged. People who start in Christiana have moved into roles in other branches, specialist functions and project teams across North West.

Training is a mix of formal courses, structured on-the-job learning and exposure to broader projects, all geared at building practical skills.

If you are relocating, the team can share practical pointers on neighbourhoods, transport and the typical pace of life in Christiana, North West.

Accessibility is taken seriously: where the role allows, the team works toward a balance of in-office presence and flexibility for candidates based in and around Christiana.

Where You’ll Work

Practically speaking, the environment is operationally driven and physical at times, with shift-based work, strict safety standards and a strong focus on accuracy and on-time delivery.

Importantly, the working environment is set up to give the team the focus needed for deeper work, while keeping collaboration and quick problem-solving close at hand.

Health, safety and well-being are taken seriously. Current policies and procedures are maintained, and the Christiana site adheres to the standards expected of a responsible South African employer.

A respectful, professional environment is the standard in North West. Bullying, harassment and unfair conduct have no place here, and managers are trained to act decisively when concerns are raised.

Meet the Team

You will join a tight-knit, collaborative team that knows the logistics jobs side of the business inside out. The Christiana group is a healthy mix of experienced operators and newer joiners, all of whom share a strong commitment to delivery and to one another.

Line management is hands-on without being heavy. Expect regular one-to-ones, honest feedback and the support needed to do good work consistently.

Beyond that, the team mix in Christiana reflects a balance of experienced operators and emerging talent, with deliberate space for diverse voices and backgrounds.

Collaboration is the default working mode. Whether picking up a quick query or working through a complex project, you will find colleagues willing to lean in and help.

A Typical Day

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.

In addition, the Christiana 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.

Equally, the rhythm rewards people who plan ahead but also pivot quickly when North West operations throw up the unexpected.

No two days look exactly the same — and that variety is part of what keeps the role engaging for the right candidate in Christiana.

Why Join Us

In addition, you will join a team that values respectful collaboration, honest feedback and shared wins. The Christiana colleagues take pride in supporting one another and in doing the logistics jobs side of the business properly, day in and day out.

Benefits are clear and consistent. Beyond the package on offer, the role includes the supports you would expect from an established South African employer in North West.

Recognition matters here. Strong performers are noticed quickly, and many promotions across the business have started in the Christiana teams.

Practically speaking, the company reinvests in its people: paid training, internal moves and the chance to take on bigger projects are all part of how careers in Christiana keep progressing.
