Job Description

When production stops at a mining workshop in Rustenburg, your crew moves in and cleans everything down. This role rewards consistency more than flash.

You'll report in Rustenburg. Relocation is not covered for this one. Most weeks are 45 hours, in line with the BCEA.

What your day looks like

  • Test sanitiser strength with test strips and record the reading
  • Clean drains and grease traps in commercial kitchens
  • Clear builders' dust, paint and cement off floors and windows after construction
  • Put out and check pest bait stations on the site map
  • Run a high-pressure washer on grease, oil and slurry build-up
  • Strip down and wash production equipment after the last run

Must-haves

  • Not scared of heights for window or rope crews
  • Physically strong for wet, heavy work
  • Willing to work nights and weekends when plants shut down
  • Respect for chemical safety and PPE
  • Grade 10 or better; you must read chemical labels and safety data sheets
  • Able to pass a medical fitness check for plant work

Extra points for

  • A Code 8 licence to drive the crew bakkie
  • Experience using a high-pressure washer or carpet extractor
  • Working-at-heights or IRATA rope access ticket

On offer

  • Full PPE: waterproof suits, boots, goggles and respirators
  • Paid training on machines and chemicals
  • Night-shift and standby allowances

Applying, step by step

  1. Make sure the role, the hours and working in Rustenburg really suit you before you apply.
  2. Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: recent medical fitness certificate if you have one, machine, chemical or heights certificates plus copy of your South African ID.
  3. Fill in the short form below with your name and a phone number you actually answer.
  4. If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 8 working days, usually by phone.

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

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

Tips to get shortlisted

  • Say you are available for night and shutdown work. That is when most factory hygiene cleaning happens.
  • Put the machines and chemicals you have used at the top of your CV. Industrial cleaning companies hire on skills, not just willingness.
