  • Keep the site diary, daily labour returns and plant hours up to date
  • Chair the weekly site meeting and record actions for the principal agent
  • Check workmanship against drawings, specifications and SANS 10400
  • Order concrete, bricks and steel on time so gangs never stand idle
  • Check reinforcing, shuttering and cover blocks before calling for a pour inspection

Must-haves

  • 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
  • Good with MS Project or a similar programme tool
  • Firm with labour, fair with subcontractors
  • You can read architectural and structural drawings and pick up clashes

  • Worked on CIDB grade 6 or higher projects

What you get

  • Cellphone and laptop supplied
  • Vehicle allowance or company bakkie
