Work-Force
An opportunity has arisen for a Code 10 Driver in Ermelo. Suitably qualified candidates from across Mpumalanga are invited to apply.
What This Role Involves
The Code 10 Driver vacancy forms part of how the Ermelo branch keeps performing. It pairs day-to-day delivery with longer-running priorities that keep the logistics jobs side of the business moving forward.
Communication runs both ways. Managers across the logistics jobs team in Mpumalanga make time for one-to-ones, and people are expected to speak up early when something needs attention.
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 Ermelo teams, and the new Code 10 Driver will feel that from the first week.
Internal documentation, process notes and shared playbooks make it easier for the Code 10 Driver to step into the logistics jobs workflow quickly. Institutional knowledge is well-organised, so people are not reinventing the wheel from one week to the next.
In addition, the role has been written to be sustainable, not just busy. Strong output is expected, and managers in Ermelo also pay attention to recovery, learning and the kind of breathing room that keeps people doing good work over time.
Working in Ermelo
On top of that, the role is based in Ermelo, close to the Komatipoort border post. Public transport links and parking are within easy reach, making the daily commute manageable for candidates living across Ermelo and the broader Mpumalanga region.
Candidates should review the listed location, schedule and travel requirements before applying for this role in Ermelo, Mpumalanga.
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 Ermelo.
Many candidates already living within reach of Ermelo cite the location as one of the role’s quiet wins, with shorter commutes and a real sense of being plugged into the local Mpumalanga economy.

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.
No two days look exactly the same — and that variety is part of what keeps the role engaging for the right candidate in Ermelo.
Notably, the Ermelo 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 Mpumalanga operations throw up the unexpected.
Your Workplace

Beyond that, the role is intended to operate under the hiring organisation’s workplace conduct, health and safety policies in Mpumalanga.
