Job Description

Clean, clear drawings that the workshop can build from: that is the job at the process plant engineering firm in Vanderbijlpark. It suits someone who likes knowing exactly what a good day's work looks like.

This post is Vanderbijlpark-based, with most of your time spent at a process plant engineering firm. Weekend work is on a roster, so you won't be on every weekend.

What you'll actually do

  • Take site measurements to check existing conditions
  • Update drawings after engineer comments and track revisions
  • Draft civil layouts, longitudinal sections and cross sections for services
  • Draw general arrangements, details and fabrication drawings in AutoCAD or Inventor
  • Keep the drawing register current and issue drawings on time

You'll need

  • Able to read engineers' mark-ups and ask the right questions
  • National Diploma or N6 in Mechanical, Civil or Electrical Engineering, or a draughting qualification
  • Understanding of engineering drawing standards and tolerances
  • At least 2 years working as a draughtsperson in your discipline
  • Neat and accurate, with a habit of checking your own work
  • Good time planning when several projects need drawings at once

Nice if you have

  • Workshop or site background
  • Revit or Civil 3D experience

What you get

  • Hybrid work once you are settled in
  • Latest CAD software licences
  • Paid training on new software
  • Two-screen workstation

How to apply

  1. Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
  2. Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: a PDF portfolio of 5 to 10 drawings with client details removed plus qualification certificate and results.
  3. Fill in the short form below with your name and a phone number you actually answer.
  4. Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 8 working days.
