Job Description

Every day is different here: small repairs, painting and planned maintenance at the residential security estate in eMalahleni. You'll work with a small crew, so being easy to work with matters as much as skill.

The site is in eMalahleni; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying. Weekend work is on a roster, so you won't be on every weekend.

What you'll actually do

Keep the maintenance store tidy and track stock used
Patch, sand and paint walls, doors and ceilings between tenants
Get quotes from outside contractors and let them in for bigger jobs
Service pool pumps, gate motors and garage door openers
Change globes, fluorescent tubes and plug covers (no DB work)

What you need

Grade 10 at least; matric is a plus
Your own tools are a plus, but safe tool handling is a must
Basic painting, tiling, plumbing and carpentry skills
Code 08 licence to run errands to the hardware store

Helpful, not essential

Pool and borehole pump experience
Basic first aid certificate

What's in it for you

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

How to apply

Make sure the role, the hours and working in eMalahleni really suit you before you apply.
Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): references from previous maintenance jobs, highest school or trade certificate plus ID copy.

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.

Write your CV as a skills list first: painting, tiling, plumbing, gate motors, pools. Managers scan for the skills their site needs.
