Job Description

This is hands-on electrical work in Mamelodi: new installs, repairs and CoCs that pass the first time. You'll work with a small crew, so being easy to work with matters as much as skill.

Home base is an office park maintenance team on the Mamelodi side of Gauteng. Start date: as soon as possible for the right person.

What your day looks like

  • Test installations and issue Certificates of Compliance where your registration allows
  • Read electrical layouts and mark out point positions before chasing walls
  • Run conduit, trunking and cable tray on new builds and renovations
  • Supervise and teach an electrical assistant or apprentice on site
  • Install and wire distribution boards, isolators and earth leakage units to SANS 10142-1
  • Quote small jobs for clients and explain the fault in plain language

You'll need

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

Helpful, not essential

  • N3 electrical trade theory on top of your trade test
  • Master Installation Electrician registration for three-phase CoCs

What's in it for you

  • 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
