Boom Gate Controller (Industrial Park)

The gate at a gated residential estate in Phalaborwa is the first line of safety, and you would be standing at it. This is a good step for someone who wants proper routine and a manager who notices good work.

The work is in Phalaborwa, Limpopo, so you'll need a reliable way to get there every day. Most weeks are 45 hours, in line with the BCEA.
