Job Description

Strong, willing hands are wanted on a shopping centre renovation in Isando. Bring a calm head on busy days and you'll be fine.

The site is in Isando; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying.

What you'll actually do

  • Pass tools and materials to the plumber or electrician as needed
  • Carry bricks, blocks and cement bags to where the bricklayers work
  • Mix concrete and mortar by hand or with a small mixer
  • Set up barriers, cones and signs around open trenches
  • Erect and strip shutters and simple scaffolding under supervision

Must-haves

  • Physically strong and fit for outdoor work in all weather
  • Prepared to travel between sites in the area
  • Willing to start early, often at 06:30
  • A clean record is preferred for some government sites

On offer

  • Overtime on weekend pours and deadline days
  • Paid weekly or fortnightly
  • Boots, hard hat and overalls issued on site
  • Learn from artisans with a chance to move up to assistant

How to apply

  1. Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
  2. Keep copies of these ready to send: reference letter or phone number from a past foreman plus certified ID copy and proof of address in the area.
  3. Use the form on this page. It takes about two minutes and you don't need to upload anything yet.

Tips to get shortlisted
