Multi-Skilled Maintenance Hand (Retirement Village)

Every day is different here: small repairs, painting and planned maintenance at the shopping centre in Germiston. If you turn up on time and finish what you start, you'll fit in quickly.

You'll report in Germiston. Relocation is not covered for this one. The first two weeks are spent shadowing someone experienced.
