Job Description

This bulk water utility in Benoni needs someone who can check a design and then go and check it was built right. You'll work with a small crew, so being easy to work with matters as much as skill.

Location: Benoni, Gauteng. Applicants who already live in the area get looked at first.

What your day looks like

  • Design reinforced concrete and steel structures to SANS 10100 and SANS 10162
  • Review geotechnical reports and choose suitable foundations
  • Work out loads to SANS 10160 for buildings and structures
  • Prepare tender documents under GCC 2015 or NEC contracts
  • Chair site meetings and handle contractor queries
  • Design water pipelines, sewers and stormwater systems with hydraulic software

What you need

  • Good grasp of South African design codes for your field
  • Code 08 licence and willingness to spend time on site
  • Registered with ECSA as a professional or candidate
  • At least 3 years in design or construction supervision
  • Experience with structural or hydraulic design software
  • BEng, BSc Eng or BTech in Civil Engineering

Helpful, not essential

  • Registration with SAICE and active CPD
  • Master's degree in structural or water engineering

What's in it for you

  • Flexible working on design weeks
  • Professional development and mentorship toward Pr Eng
  • Site allowance when you work as resident engineer
  • Group life and disability cover

Applying, step by step

  1. Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
  2. Keep copies of these ready to send: civil engineering degree certificate, copy of ID with a commissioner of oaths stamp plus ECSA certificate of registration.
  3. Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
  4. Watch for a call or WhatsApp from How2Apply over the next 5 working days.

Your application joins the How2Apply talent pool for this role, and we put shortlisted people forward to employers hiring in and around Benoni.

How2Apply never charges you to apply, for training, for uniforms or for a "placement fee". If anyone asks you for money, it is a scam.

How to stand out

  • Group your experience by type: water, roads, structures. Consultants look for the exact type in the job ad.
  • Say whether you have done resident engineer work. It is a separate skill and often in short supply.
