Job Description

When production stops at a newly built office block in Tembisa, your crew moves in and cleans everything down. You'll work with a small crew, so being easy to work with matters as much as skill.

You'll be based at a newly built office block in Tembisa. Living nearby, or on a taxi route to it, really helps. Overtime comes up in peak season and is paid.

What you'll actually do

  • Test sanitiser strength with test strips and record the reading
  • Strip down and wash production equipment after the last run
  • Put out and check pest bait stations on the site map
  • Lock out machines before cleaning, as the safety file requires
  • Run a high-pressure washer on grease, oil and slurry build-up

Must-haves

  • Willing to work nights and weekends when plants shut down
  • Reliable, as crews are small and each person counts
  • Not scared of heights for window or rope crews
  • Able to pass a medical fitness check for plant work

Helpful, not essential

  • A Code 8 licence to drive the crew bakkie
  • Experience using a high-pressure washer or carpet extractor

What you get

  • Night-shift and standby allowances
  • Full PPE: waterproof suits, boots, goggles and respirators
  • Paid training on machines and chemicals

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): recent medical fitness certificate if you have one plus machine, chemical or heights certificates.
  3. Use the form on this page. It takes about two minutes and you don't need to upload anything yet.
  4. Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 10 working days.

Tips to get shortlisted
