Industrial Cleaner (Mining Workshop) – Experienced

You'll do the heavy cleaning at a newly built office block in Mbombela, the kind that needs machines, chemicals and training. You don't need to be the loudest person in the room, just the one others can count on.

• Night-shift and standby allowances
• Higher hourly rate than standard cleaning
