Clean, clear drawings that the workshop can build from: that is the job at the electrical contractor design office in Roodepoort. This role rewards consistency more than flash.

This post is in Roodepoort (Gauteng). Please only apply if you can travel there daily. Start is planned for the beginning of next month.

• Neat and accurate, with a habit of checking your own work
• National Diploma or N6 in Mechanical, Civil or Electrical Engineering, or a draughting qualification
• Able to read engineers' mark-ups and ask the right questions
• Advanced skills in AutoCAD plus one 3D package
