Job Description

Handy with a drill, a paintbrush and a tap washer? The city hotel in Komani has a list waiting for you. You'll work with a small crew, so being easy to work with matters as much as skill.

  • Lay and repair floor tiles and re-grout wet areas
  • Change globes, fluorescent tubes and plug covers (no DB work)

What you need

  • Honest and trusted to work inside occupied units
  • Grade 10 at least; matric is a plus
