A leading logistics group is looking for a skilled, hands-on Workshop Foreman to run trailer repairs and maintenance for its fleet of tautliner and tipper trailers.

Enforce safety compliance across all activities

Requirements:

Diesel Mechanic qualification (Red Seal or equivalent)
Minimum 2 years'' experience working on tautliner and tipper trailers
Prior team supervision or workshop leadership experience
Medically fit and compliant for mining standards
Willing to work weekdays (07:0017:00) and some weekends

Whats On Offer:

Competitive salary: R30,000 to R40,000 per month (Cost to Company)
Discretionary 13th cheque
Stable, long-term opportunity in a structured, well-run business
Role with clear responsibility, team leadership, and room to take ownership

This role suits someone who thrives in a workshop, takes pride in their work, and wants to lead a team that keeps trailers road-ready and safe.

If that sounds like you apply today.
