Distribution Manager

A Distribution Manager is needed in Pretoria. The role focuses on consistent delivery, accurate work and clear communication across the Gauteng operation.

The Role

An experienced Distribution Manager is needed to support operations in Pretoria. 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.

Internal documentation, process notes and shared playbooks make it easier for the Distribution Manager 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.

Diversity and Inclusion

Inclusion is a core part of how the team operates. This is an equal-opportunity employer, and candidates from all communities — including women, youth and persons living with disabilities — are encouraged to apply for this role in Pretoria.

B-BBEE compliance is more than a scorecard here. It informs how the business invests in skills development, supplier diversity and community engagement across the country.

Inclusive hiring extends through onboarding and into how teams operate every day. Respectful, fair conduct is expected from every team member in Pretoria.

About the Team

You will join a tight-knit, collaborative team that knows the logistics jobs side of the business inside out. The Pretoria 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.

The team mix in Pretoria reflects a balance of experienced operators and emerging talent, with deliberate space for diverse voices and backgrounds.

On top of that, internal mobility is encouraged. People who start in Pretoria have moved into roles in other branches, specialist functions and project teams across Gauteng.
