Coded Welder (Pressure Vessels)

You'll cut, fit and weld steel to drawing in a busy pressure vessel manufacturer in Alberton. If you turn up on time and finish what you start, you'll fit in quickly.

The work is in Alberton, Gauteng, so you'll need a reliable way to get there every day. Weekend work is on a roster, so you won't be on every weekend.

• Roll and form plate for tanks, chutes and hoppers
• Read fabrication drawings and cutting lists before you mark out plate
• Keep a hot work permit open and a fire watch in place during shutdowns
• Follow the welding procedure specification for every joint you weld
• TIG weld stainless steel tanks and fittings with proper back-purging

• Valid welder coding to ISO 9606-1 or ASME IX in the processes the job needs
• You can read fabrication and isometric drawings without help
• Willing to work shutdowns, long shifts and weekends when the plant is down
• At least 2 years of production or site welding after qualifying

• Experience on structural work to AWS D1.1
• Duplex or chrome-moly welding experience
• Orbital or automatic welding experience

• Coding renewals paid by the employer
• Accommodation and meals paid on out-of-town shutdowns
• Leather welding PPE and auto-darkening helmet supplied

• Expired codings are the number one reason welders are turned away at the gate. Check dates before you apply.
• If you have worked shutdowns, name the type of plant, like refinery or sugar mill. It proves you know the site rules.
