The manufacturing plant in Midrand needs an electrical engineer for projects that go from design to commissioning. This role rewards consistency more than flash.

  • Experience with at least one power system or lighting design package
  • ECSA registration as Pr Eng, Pr Tech Eng or Candidate
  • Code 08 licence and willingness to travel to sites

Helpful, not essential

  • Clear path to associate or senior engineer
  • Paid professional registration and training
