Job Description

This private hospital maintenance department in Epping needs a plumber who arrives on time, fixes it properly and leaves the site clean. You'll work with a small crew, so being easy to work with matters as much as skill.

Home base is a private hospital maintenance department on the Epping side of Western Cape. Hours are mostly Monday to Friday, with the odd Saturday in busy months.

What your day looks like

  • Work on the emergency call-out roster for after-hours bursts
  • Fit toilets, basins, showers and mixers to the client's chosen finishes
  • Replace burst geysers and fit vacuum breakers, drip trays and pressure control valves to SANS 10254
  • Clear blocked drains with a rodding machine and inspect lines with a drain camera
  • Service booster pumps, pressure tanks and water storage tanks

What you need

  • PIRB registration as a Licensed Plumber, so you can issue plumbing CoCs
  • At least 3 years as a qualified plumber, including geyser replacements
  • Code 08 licence and a clean driving record
  • Fit enough to lift a 150-litre geyser with a helper and work in tight roof spaces

Nice if you have

  • SAQCC Gas registration for LPG installations
  • Drain camera and high-pressure jetting experience

What you get

  • Cellphone allowance for job updates and photos
  • Protective clothing and safety boots replaced yearly
  • Call-out bonus for every after-hours job you complete
  • Paid PIRB renewal fee

How to apply

  1. Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
  2. Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: a CV with two contactable references from plumbing employers, plumbing trade test or occupational certificate plus ID copy, certified within the last three months.
  3. Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
  4. Watch for a call or WhatsApp from How2Apply over the next 5 working days.

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

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.

Tips to get shortlisted

  • Mention how many geyser replacements you do in a normal month. It is the number most plumbing managers ask about.
  • Do not list every plumbing task you have ever done. Focus on geysers, drainage and CoCs, which is what these jobs pay for.
