Job Description

This is hands-on electrical work in Centurion: new installs, repairs and CoCs that pass the first time. Bring a calm head on busy days and you'll be fine.

The site is in Centurion; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying.

What your day looks like

  • Install and wire distribution boards, isolators and earth leakage units to SANS 10142-1
  • Install inverters, battery banks and changeover switches for backup power clients
  • Fault-find tripping circuits with a multimeter, insulation tester and loop tester
  • Run conduit, trunking and cable tray on new builds and renovations
  • Read electrical layouts and mark out point positions before chasing walls

Must-haves

  • Registered with the Department of Employment and Labour as an Installation Electrician or holding a Wireman's licence
  • Solid working knowledge of SANS 10142-1 and the Electrical Installation Regulations
  • At least 3 years working as a qualified electrician after your trade test
  • Electrical trade test certificate (Section 13 or 26D) through a QCTO-accredited centre
  • Your own basic hand tools and a calibrated multimeter
  • Comfortable working at heights on ladders and in roof spaces

Helpful, not essential

  • PLC and motor control experience from a factory setting
  • Master Installation Electrician registration for three-phase CoCs
  • Solar PV installation training and experience with hybrid inverters

What you get

  • Overtime paid at time-and-a-half on weekends
  • Company bakkie for call-outs and travel between sites
  • Provident fund and group risk cover after probation
  • Company-issued test instruments, calibrated every year

Applying, step by step

  1. Make sure the role, the hours and working in Centurion really suit you before you apply.
  2. Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: trade test certificate, certified copy of your ID plus Wireman's licence or registration letter from the Department of Employment and Labour.
  3. Use the form on this page. It takes about two minutes and you don't need to upload anything yet.
  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 Centurion.

Applying is free. Nobody from How2Apply will ever ask you to pay for anything to get this job.

How to stand out

  • List two or three recent jobs with sizes, like a 60-point house rewire or a 10 kVA inverter install. It shows your level quickly.
  • If you have issued CoCs before, say how many and for what type of property.
