Job Description

Handy with a drill, a paintbrush and a tap washer? The rental property portfolio in Johannesburg CBD has a list waiting for you. It's a practical job: you'll see what you got done before you go home.

The site is in Johannesburg CBD; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying. The first two weeks are spent shadowing someone experienced.

What your day looks like

  • Lay and repair floor tiles and re-grout wet areas
  • Patch, sand and paint walls, doors and ceilings between tenants
  • Replace tap washers, cisterns, shower heads and toilet seats
  • Work through the maintenance log each morning and prioritise urgent requests
  • Change globes, fluorescent tubes and plug covers (no DB work)

You'll need

  • Honest and trusted to work inside occupied units
  • Code 08 licence to run errands to the hardware store
  • At least 2 years of general building maintenance work you can back up with references
  • Your own tools are a plus, but safe tool handling is a must

Nice if you have

  • Basic first aid certificate
  • Gate motor and intercom repair skills

What you get

  • Meals on duty at hotel sites
  • Training on specialised equipment like gate motors and pool plant
  • On-site accommodation at some estates
  • Uniform and safety boots supplied

How to apply for this job

  1. Make sure the role, the hours and working in Johannesburg CBD really suit you before you apply.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): highest school or trade certificate plus references from previous maintenance jobs.
  3. Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
  4. Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 9 working days.

Your application joins the How2Apply talent pool for this role, and we put shortlisted people forward to employers hiring in and around Johannesburg CBD.

How2Apply never charges you to apply, for training, for uniforms or for a "placement fee". If anyone asks you for money, it is a scam.

How to stand out

  • Write your CV as a skills list first: painting, tiling, plumbing, gate motors, pools. Managers scan for the skills their site needs.
  • Before-and-after photos on your phone can win you this job. Offer to show them at the interview.
