HINO DRIVER – Indongo Hino

You need a valid Namibian Code CE or Code 14 driver's license with a professional driving permit (PrDP). A Grade 12 certificate is typically preferred, and experience driving heavy commercial vehicles is highly valued. Some employers may also require a defensive driving certificate or first aid training.

Daily duties include pre-trip vehicle inspections, transporting goods or passengers safely across Namibian roads, and maintaining accurate logbooks. You will also handle basic vehicle maintenance checks and ensure timely deliveries while adhering to traffic regulations. Long-distance trips to towns like Walvis Bay, Oshakati, or Keetmanshoop are common.

Punctuality and reliability are highly valued in Namibian transport work culture. Employers expect drivers to maintain professionalism with clients and represent the company well on the road. Respect for hierarchy and clear communication with dispatchers and management are essential workplace expectations.

Experienced drivers can advance to senior driver, fleet supervisor, or transport coordinator roles with additional training. Some progress into logistics management or start their own transport businesses. Obtaining further certifications in fleet management or dangerous goods handling can accelerate career growth.

Benefits vary by employer but commonly include annual leave as per Namibian labour law, medical aid contributions, and pension fund membership. Some companies provide overtime pay, travel allowances, and uniform provisions. Larger employers may offer additional perks such as performance bonuses or funeral cover.

Apply directly through company websites, Namibian job portals like My Namibia, or by visiting Indongo Hino's offices with your CV and certified documents. Employers prioritize clean driving records, traceable references, and demonstrated reliability. A well-prepared application highlighting your safety record and knowledge of Namibian road networks strengthens your candidacy.
