Job Description

You'll mix, carry, dig and clean up so the tradespeople on a low-cost housing development in Sasolburg can keep building. This is a good step for someone who wants proper routine and a manager who notices good work.

You'll report in Sasolburg. Relocation is not covered for this one. Start is planned for the beginning of next month.

What your day looks like

  • Set up barriers, cones and signs around open trenches
  • Carry bricks, blocks and cement bags to where the bricklayers work
  • Sign the daily safety talk register before work starts
  • Clean tools, mixers and wheelbarrows at the end of each day
  • Clear rubble and load it into skips
  • Mix concrete and mortar by hand or with a small mixer
  • Pass tools and materials to the plumber or electrician as needed

You'll need

  • Able to follow instructions from a foreman or artisan
  • Prepared to travel between sites in the area
  • You take safety rules seriously and wear full PPE
  • Grade 8 or higher
  • Physically strong and fit for outdoor work in all weather

Helpful, not essential

  • Previous site work you can show with a reference
  • Living near the site (many projects hire local labour)

On offer

  • Boots, hard hat and overalls issued on site
  • Paid weekly or fortnightly
  • Overtime on weekend pours and deadline days

How to apply for this job

  1. Make sure the role, the hours and working in Sasolburg really suit you before you apply.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): reference letter or phone number from a past foreman plus certified ID copy and proof of address in the area.
  3. Use the form on this page. It takes about two minutes and you don't need to upload anything yet.
  4. Watch for a call or WhatsApp from How2Apply over the next 6 working days.

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

How2Apply never charges you to apply, for training, for uniforms or for a "placement fee". If anyone asks you for money, it is a scam.

How to stand out

  • List past sites by name and what you did there, like "mixed concrete, laid kerbs". It proves you have done real site work.
  • If a foreman can vouch for you, put their number on your CV. Site hiring runs on word of mouth.
