Construction Manager (Mid-Rise Buildings) – Permanent

Here you run the site: labour, materials, quality and progress for the general building contractor in Vanderbijlpark. If you turn up on time and finish what you start, you'll fit in quickly.

• At least 5 years on building or civil sites, 2 of them in a supervisory post
• Code 08 licence and your own reliable transport between sites
• National Diploma or BTech in Building or Civil Engineering, or a trade background with site experience
• Firm with labour, fair with subcontractors
