Job Description

You'll run the site day to day for the retail and commercial builder in Bethlehem, from setting out to handover. If you learn fast and don't mind being shown things twice, you'll settle in within a few weeks.

This post is in Bethlehem (Free State). Please only apply if you can travel there daily.

What your day looks like

  • Draw up snag lists and close them out before practical completion
  • Book NHBRC and municipal inspections at the right stages
  • Keep the site diary, daily labour returns and plant hours up to date
  • Run toolbox talks and support the safety officer on Construction Regulations compliance
  • Plan the week's work from the construction programme and brief the gangs each morning
  • Set out foundations, grid lines and levels with the surveyor or a dumpy level

Must-haves

  • Good with MS Project or a similar programme tool
  • You can read architectural and structural drawings and pick up clashes
  • Firm with labour, fair with subcontractors
  • Code 08 licence and your own reliable transport between sites
  • National Diploma or BTech in Building or Civil Engineering, or a trade background with site experience
  • Working knowledge of the Construction Regulations 2014 under the OHS Act

Helpful, not essential

  • Worked on CIDB grade 6 or higher projects
  • Concrete technology short course
  • SACPCMP registration as a Construction Manager or Candidate

On offer

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