Driver

Looking for your next move as a Driver in Harrismith? A role has just opened that gives you real responsibility and a clear path forward in Free State.

About the Opportunity

This Driver role has been briefed against a clear set of outcomes for Harrismith. The successful candidate will work alongside an established team and will be expected to contribute meaningfully to the logistics jobs pipeline across Free State.

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.

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 Harrismith much easier.

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.

The Harrismith 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 Free State operations throw up the unexpected.

Equal Opportunity

Equally, the organisation supports a respectful workplace. Applications are welcome from suitably qualified candidates across Free State, and recruitment is intended to be fair and transparent.

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

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.
