Job Description

The manufacturing plant in Krugersdorp needs an electrical engineer for projects that go from design to commissioning. It suits someone who likes knowing exactly what a good day's work looks like.

The site is in Krugersdorp; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying. Hours are mostly Monday to Friday, with the odd Saturday in busy months.

Inspect installations and sign off compliance on completion
Review PLC and SCADA logic for process control and alarms
Guide technicians and contractors on site during commissioning
Design LV and MV reticulation to SANS 10142-1 and SANS 10142-2

You'll need

Strong understanding of SANS 10142 and the Electrical Installation Regulations
BEng or BSc Eng in Electrical Engineering, or a BTech or Advanced Diploma for technologist posts
At least 3 years of electrical engineering work after graduating
Code 08 licence and willingness to travel to sites

Helpful, not essential

PLC programming certification
Renewable energy project experience above 1 MW

What's in it for you

Paid professional registration and training
Clear path to associate or senior engineer
Vehicle allowance for site work

Applying, step by step

Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): ECSA registration letter plus ID copy, certified within three months.
Fill in the short form below with your name and a phone number you actually answer.
Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 5 working days.

Your application joins the How2Apply talent pool for this role, and we put shortlisted people forward to employers hiring in and around Krugersdorp.

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.
