Facilities Maintenance Handyman (Office Park)

You'll fix what breaks and prevent what might, around the residential security estate in Cape Town CBD. You don't need to be the loudest person in the room, just the one others can count on.

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