* Tech & Safety: Using our systems to log movements, conducting pre-use checks, and keeping our "Safety First" culture alive.
* Team Synergy: Collaborating with warehouse legends and drivers to keep the flow seamless.
* Agility: Helping out with inventory or local runs when things get quiet—no two nights are the same.

* The Vibe: You thrive in fast-paced environments and actually care about the "DPD DNA" - Passion, Respect, and Accountability.
* The Skills: You can maneuver in tight spots that would make others sweat. You’re proactive, physically fit, and ready to solve problems before they happen.
* The Tech-Savvy: You’re comfortable with basic digital logging (no paper mountains here).
