Painter (New Builds & Refurbishments)

You'll build it with your hands: walls, floors, roofs and finishes on the residential renovation company in Middelburg (MP). It's a practical job: you'll see what you got done before you go home.

Location: Middelburg (MP), Mpumalanga. Applicants who already live in the area get looked at first.

• Wear your hard hat, boots and harness wherever the foreman says
• Tile floors, showers and splashbacks, including cutting around fittings
• Fix roof trusses, purlins and brandering for ceilings
• Lay paving on a compacted, levelled bedding sand layer
• Carry bricks and materials to the workface and keep the scaffold clear

• Able to follow a foreman's instructions and read basic measurements
• Willing to move between sites in the same city
• Understands basic site safety like scaffolds and open trenches
• Safety boots of your own for the first week, if possible

• Chance to move up to a gang leader post
• UIF and COIDA registration from day one
• Transport from a pick-up point to site
• Weekly or fortnightly pay, always on time

• Say which trade you are strongest in first. "Bricklayer, 6 years, face brick" is better than "general construction".
• Bring photos of your work on your phone. A foreman believes a straight wall more than a long CV.
