Job Description

Industrial cleaners are always in demand; this crew works a dairy processing factory in Montague Gardens. Bring a calm head on busy days and you'll be fine.

This post is Montague Gardens-based, with most of your time spent at a dairy processing factory.

What your day looks like

  • Put out and check pest bait stations on the site map
  • Shampoo carpets and upholstery with an extraction machine
  • Foam, scrub and rinse walls, floors and conveyors with approved chemicals
  • Clean drains and grease traps in commercial kitchens
  • Test sanitiser strength with test strips and record the reading
  • Run a high-pressure washer on grease, oil and slurry build-up
  • Clear builders' dust, paint and cement off floors and windows after construction

You'll need

  • Grade 10 or better; you must read chemical labels and safety data sheets
  • Able to pass a medical fitness check for plant work
  • Reliable, as crews are small and each person counts
  • Respect for chemical safety and PPE
  • Willing to work nights and weekends when plants shut down

On offer

  • Night-shift and standby allowances
  • Higher hourly rate than standard cleaning
  • Paid training on machines and chemicals
  • Full PPE: waterproof suits, boots, goggles and respirators

  1. Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): copy of your South African ID, machine, chemical or heights certificates plus recent medical fitness certificate if you have one.
  3. Fill in the short form below with your name and a phone number you actually answer.
  4. If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 5 working days, usually by phone.
