Maintenance Artisan (Shopping Centre) – Entry Level

You'll fix what breaks and prevent what might, around the private school in Bellville. It's the kind of job where doing the basics well every day gets you noticed.

You'll be based at a private school in Bellville. Living nearby, or on a taxi route to it, really helps. Weekend work is on a roster, so you won't be on every weekend.

• Change globes, fluorescent tubes and plug covers (no DB work)
• Check fire extinguishers, emergency lights and escape routes on a monthly checklist
• Keep the maintenance store tidy and track stock used
• Hang doors, fit locks and adjust sliding door rails
• Service pool pumps, gate motors and garage door openers
• Work through the maintenance log each morning and prioritise urgent requests

• Grade 10 at least; matric is a plus
• Available for the occasional weekend emergency
• Your own tools are a plus, but safe tool handling is a must

• Pool and borehole pump experience
• Experience with a work order system on a phone app
• Basic first aid certificate

• Training on specialised equipment like gate motors and pool plant
