Job Description

The office park maintenance team in Tzaneen needs a qualified electrician who can work neatly and sign off safe installations. People who do well here are steady, honest and not scared to ask when something is unclear.

Location: Tzaneen, Limpopo. Applicants who already live in the area get looked at first. Shifts rotate, so you'll need to be flexible about days and nights.

What your day looks like

  • Quote small jobs for clients and explain the fault in plain language
  • Install inverters, battery banks and changeover switches for backup power clients
  • Run conduit, trunking and cable tray on new builds and renovations
  • Test installations and issue Certificates of Compliance where your registration allows
  • Replace faulty light fittings, plugs, geyser elements and thermostats
  • Lock out and tag out circuits before any work on live equipment
  • Complete job cards, material lists and test reports at the end of each job

What you need

  • Your own basic hand tools and a calibrated multimeter
  • Comfortable working at heights on ladders and in roof spaces
  • Solid working knowledge of SANS 10142-1 and the Electrical Installation Regulations
  • Electrical trade test certificate (Section 13 or 26D) through a QCTO-accredited centre
  • At least 3 years working as a qualified electrician after your trade test
  • Valid Code 08 driver's licence

Helpful, not essential

  • N3 electrical trade theory on top of your trade test
  • Working at Heights certificate still in date
  • Master Installation Electrician registration for three-phase CoCs

What's in it for you

  • Provident fund and group risk cover after probation
  • Company-issued test instruments, calibrated every year
  • Company bakkie for call-outs and travel between sites

  1. Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): certified copy of your ID, trade test certificate plus Wireman's licence or registration letter from the Department of Employment and Labour.
  3. Use the form on this page. It takes about two minutes and you don't need to upload anything yet.
  4. If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 7 working days, usually by phone.
