Job Description

Every day is different here: small repairs, painting and planned maintenance at the city hotel in Epping. Expect to be trusted with real work from your first week.

Home base is a city hotel on the Epping side of Western Cape. Weekend work is on a roster, so you won't be on every weekend.

What you'll actually do

  • Service pool pumps, gate motors and garage door openers
  • Hang doors, fit locks and adjust sliding door rails
  • Keep the maintenance store tidy and track stock used
  • Work through the maintenance log each morning and prioritise urgent requests
  • Change globes, fluorescent tubes and plug covers (no DB work)
  • Check fire extinguishers, emergency lights and escape routes on a monthly checklist
  • Lay and repair floor tiles and re-grout wet areas

You'll need

  • Honest and trusted to work inside occupied units
  • Basic painting, tiling, plumbing and carpentry skills
  • Code 08 licence to run errands to the hardware store
  • Grade 10 at least; matric is a plus
  • At least 2 years of general building maintenance work you can back up with references
  • Available for the occasional weekend emergency

Helpful, not essential

  • Basic first aid certificate
  • Pool and borehole pump experience

On offer

  • Meals on duty at hotel sites
  • Uniform and safety boots supplied
  • Training on specialised equipment like gate motors and pool plant
  • On-site accommodation at some estates

Applying, step by step

  1. Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): references from previous maintenance jobs plus highest school or trade certificate.
