Assistant Site Agent (Roads & Stormwater) – Fixed-Term

Here you run the site: labour, materials, quality and progress for the general building contractor in Kathu. It suits someone who likes knowing exactly what a good day's work looks like.

This post is in Kathu (Northern Cape). Please only apply if you can travel there daily.

• Order concrete, bricks and steel on time so gangs never stand idle
• Keep the site diary, daily labour returns and plant hours up to date
• Book NHBRC and municipal inspections at the right stages
• Draw up snag lists and close them out before practical completion
• Plan the week's work from the construction programme and brief the gangs each morning
• Check workmanship against drawings, specifications and SANS 10400

• Firm with labour, fair with subcontractors
• Working knowledge of the Construction Regulations 2014 under the OHS Act
• You can read architectural and structural drawings and pick up clashes
• National Diploma or BTech in Building or Civil Engineering, or a trade background with site experience

• Concrete technology short course
• Experience on JBCC or GCC 2015 contracts

• Vehicle allowance or company bakkie
• Cellphone and laptop supplied
• Project completion bonus linked to handover date
• Site accommodation on out-of-town projects

• If you have SACPCMP registration, put the number and category under your name.
• A common mistake is listing only company names. Say what you built, for example "32 walk-up flats, 3 storeys".
