Job Description

This is hands-on electrical work in Sasolburg: new installs, repairs and CoCs that pass the first time. It's the kind of job where doing the basics well every day gets you noticed.

You'll be based at an office park maintenance team in Sasolburg. Living nearby, or on a taxi route to it, really helps. Hours are mostly Monday to Friday, with the odd Saturday in busy months.

What your day looks like

  • Complete job cards, material lists and test reports at the end of each job
  • Replace faulty light fittings, plugs, geyser elements and thermostats
  • Read electrical layouts and mark out point positions before chasing walls
  • Test installations and issue Certificates of Compliance where your registration allows
  • Supervise and teach an electrical assistant or apprentice on site

You'll need

  • Valid Code 08 driver's licence
  • Clean criminal record, since you will work inside client homes
  • At least 3 years working as a qualified electrician after your trade test
  • Registered with the Department of Employment and Labour as an Installation Electrician or holding a Wireman's licence
  • Comfortable working at heights on ladders and in roof spaces

On offer

  • Provident fund and group risk cover after probation
  • Standby allowance when you are on the after-hours roster
  • Company bakkie for call-outs and travel between sites

How to apply for this job

  1. Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
  2. Keep copies of these ready to send: certified copy of your ID, Wireman's licence or registration letter from the Department of Employment and Labour plus trade test certificate.
  3. Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
  4. Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 8 working days.

How2Apply never charges you to apply, for training, for uniforms or for a "placement fee". If anyone asks you for money, it is a scam.

How to stand out

  • Many applicants forget to attach the trade test certificate itself. Recruiters often skip CVs that only mention it.
  • List two or three recent jobs with sizes, like a 60-point house rewire or a 10 kVA inverter install. It shows your level quickly.
