  • Run conduit, trunking and cable tray on new builds and renovations
  • Complete job cards, material lists and test reports at the end of each job
  • Install inverters, battery banks and changeover switches for backup power clients
  • Replace faulty light fittings, plugs, geyser elements and thermostats

Must-haves

  • Valid Code 08 driver's licence
  • At least 3 years working as a qualified electrician after your trade test
  • Registered with the Department of Employment and Labour as an Installation Electrician or holding a Wireman's licence
  • Electrical trade test certificate (Section 13 or 26D) through a QCTO-accredited centre
  • Your own basic hand tools and a calibrated multimeter

Helpful, not essential

  • Master Installation Electrician registration for three-phase CoCs
  • PLC and motor control experience from a factory setting

What's in it for you

  • Standby allowance when you are on the after-hours roster
  • Company bakkie for call-outs and travel between sites
  • Overtime paid at time-and-a-half on weekends
  • Company-issued test instruments, calibrated every year

  1. Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
  2. Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: certified copy of your ID, driver's licence copy plus Wireman's licence or registration letter from the Department of Employment and Labour.
  3. Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.

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

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.

Tips to get shortlisted

  • If you have issued CoCs before, say how many and for what type of property.
  • Many applicants forget to attach the trade test certificate itself. Recruiters often skip CVs that only mention it.
