Industrial Cleaner (Mining Workshop)

Industrial cleaners are always in demand; this crew works a newly built office block in Kimberley. If you learn fast and don't mind being shown things twice, you'll settle in within a few weeks.

This post is in Kimberley (Northern Cape). Please only apply if you can travel there daily. Most weeks are 45 hours, in line with the BCEA.

• Foam, scrub and rinse walls, floors and conveyors with approved chemicals
• Put out and check pest bait stations on the site map
• Strip down and wash production equipment after the last run
• Clean drains and grease traps in commercial kitchens
• Shampoo carpets and upholstery with an extraction machine
• Store chemicals in the locked chemical store with safety data sheets

• Willing to work nights and weekends when plants shut down
• Physically strong for wet, heavy work
• Reliable, as crews are small and each person counts
• Respect for chemical safety and PPE
• Not scared of heights for window or rope crews

• Working-at-heights or IRATA rope access ticket
• Experience using a high-pressure washer or carpet extractor

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

• If you hold a heights or rope access ticket, attach it. It can double what you earn in this line of work.
• Say you are available for night and shutdown work. That is when most factory hygiene cleaning happens.
