Piping Designer (Plant Layout)

The steel fabrication company in Phalaborwa needs a draughtsperson who gets the dimensions right the first time. If you turn up on time and finish what you start, you'll fit in quickly.

The site is in Phalaborwa; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying. Start date: as soon as possible for the right person.

• Keep the drawing register current and issue drawings on time
• Model steel structures in Tekla and produce shop drawings and cutting lists

• Advanced skills in AutoCAD plus one 3D package
• National Diploma or N6 in Mechanical, Civil or Electrical Engineering, or a draughting qualification
• Able to read engineers' mark-ups and ask the right questions
• Neat and accurate, with a habit of checking your own work

• Registration with ECSA as a Candidate Engineering Technician
