Hygiene Cleaner (Food Factory Night Crew)

You'll do the heavy cleaning at a dairy processing factory in Germiston, the kind that needs machines, chemicals and training. Someone who likes a bit of variety, but also likes doing things the right way, will enjoy this.

You'll report in Germiston. Relocation is not covered for this one. Start date: as soon as possible for the right person.
