Work-Force
A Code 14 Driver position is being filled in Saldanha. Suitable candidates from across Western Cape are invited to submit their applications for review.
Overview
An experienced Code 14 Driver is needed to support operations in Saldanha. The role forms part of how the business keeps its logistics jobs portfolio strong in Western Cape.
Communication runs both ways. Managers across the logistics jobs team in Western Cape make time for one-to-ones, and people are expected to speak up early when something needs attention.
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 Saldanha much easier.
Where You’ll Work
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.
Notably, 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 Saldanha site adheres to the standards expected of a responsible South African employer.
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.
Beyond that, the rhythm rewards people who plan ahead but also pivot quickly when Western Cape 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 Saldanha.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Process returns, claims and damaged stock through the agreed workflow
- Operate forklifts and material handling equipment safely
- Pick, pack and dispatch orders accurately within agreed cut-offs
- Conduct daily, weekly and monthly stock counts and investigate variances
- Maintain accurate inventory records on the warehouse management system
- Investigate stock losses and contribute to shrinkage reduction plans
- Maintain housekeeping standards in racking, aisles and yard areas
Who We’re Looking For
- Valid Code 10 or Code 14 driver’s licence with PrDP for driving roles
- Computer literacy in MS Office and basic ERP modules
- 2+ years’ experience in warehousing, distribution or logistics
- Good communication skills with drivers, suppliers and customers
- Awareness of OHS Act, traffic regulations and hazardous goods rules
- Relevant logistics, supply chain or warehousing qualification (preferred)
- Ability to work shifts, including night shifts and weekends
Potential is considered alongside experience, so candidates who tick most of these boxes should still be considered.
