Farm Machinery Operator (GPS Guidance)

If you know tractors, a mixed crop farm near Rustenburg has steady work for you. This is a good step for someone who wants proper routine and a manager who notices good work.

You'll be based at a mixed crop farm in Rustenburg. Living nearby, or on a taxi route to it, really helps. You'll start with a short induction before working on your own.

• Mix and apply sprays exactly as the farm manager prescribes
• Record hours, fuel and fields worked on the job card
• Operate combine harvesters during harvest season
• Clear firebreaks and grade farm roads when needed
• Haul cane, grain or fruit bins from field to shed

• Reliable and sober on duty
• Available to live on or near the farm
• Can read job cards and spray instructions
• At least 2 years driving tractors on a farm
• Safe driver who respects chemical and machine safety
• Willing to work long hours in planting and harvest seasons

• Overtime paid during planting and harvest
• Farm housing with water and electricity
• Training on new machinery

• Mention GPS or auto-steer if you have used it. Modern grain farms struggle to find operators who know it.
• A reference from a previous farmer is gold. Ask for it before you leave any farm job.
