About the Opportunity
An experienced Transport Planner is needed to support operations in Centurion. The role forms part of how the business keeps its logistics jobs portfolio strong in Gauteng.
Day-to-day, the role balances focused delivery with the kind of collaboration that keeps things moving. The successful candidate is trusted to make sensible decisions inside the agreed scope, with line-management support whenever a sounding board is useful.
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 Centurion.
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.
The Centurion 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.
Crucially, the rhythm rewards people who plan ahead but also pivot quickly when Gauteng operations throw up the unexpected.
Career Growth
Career progression for this logistics jobs role in Centurion depends on the hiring organisation’s policies, role requirements and business needs in Gauteng.
Internal mobility is encouraged. People who start in Centurion have moved into roles in other branches, specialist functions and project teams across Gauteng.
