Dozer Operator (Mine Dumps & Haul Roads) – Immediate Start

You'll operate heavy mining machines on shift at the open-pit manganese mine near Pietermaritzburg. If you turn up on time and finish what you start, you'll fit in quickly.

The work is in Pietermaritzburg, KwaZulu-Natal, so you'll need a reliable way to get there every day. There's a probation period of three months before the contract is confirmed.

• Haul ore and waste on the haul road loop to the crusher or dump

• Certificate of fitness from a mine medical practitioner
• Code 10 or Code 14 driver's licence

• Medical aid subsidy
• Company bus from nearby towns to the mine gate
