Qualified Electrician (Residential Installations)

The office park maintenance team in Pretoria East needs a qualified electrician who can work neatly and sign off safe installations. This is a good step for someone who wants proper routine and a manager who notices good work.

The work is in Pretoria East, Gauteng, so you'll need a reliable way to get there every day. Start is planned for the beginning of next month.
