Job Description

Real machines, real budgets and real downtime targets at the petrochemical plant in Mamelodi. This role rewards consistency more than flash.

You'll be based at a petrochemical plant in Mamelodi. Living nearby, or on a taxi route to it, really helps. Most weeks are 45 hours, in line with the BCEA.

What your day looks like

  • Analyse breakdowns with root cause methods and fix the cause, not the symptom
  • Plan and track preventive maintenance in the CMMS with the artisans and planners
  • Prepare the maintenance budget and report monthly on spend
  • Hold the GMR 2.1 appointment and keep machinery safety legal on site
  • Write scopes of work and compare contractor quotes
  • Check pressure vessels for compliance with the Pressure Equipment Regulations and SANS 347
  • Design conveyors, chutes and structures in SolidWorks or Inventor

You'll need

  • Code 08 licence for site visits
  • Working knowledge of the OHS Act and General Machinery Regulations
  • Registered with ECSA as Pr Eng, Pr Tech Eng or Candidate, depending on level
  • Three or more years working as a qualified engineer, in industry or consulting
  • Confident with 3D CAD software and engineering calculations
  • Able to manage contractors and budgets

What you get

  • ECSA registration fees and CPD paid
  • Performance bonus tied to plant availability
  • Company laptop and CAD licences
  • Medical aid and retirement fund contributions

Applying, step by step

  1. Make sure the role, the hours and working in Mamelodi really suit you before you apply.
  2. Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: a list of projects with your role on each plus certified copy of your ID.
  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 Mamelodi.

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.

Before you hit apply

  • Show results in numbers: downtime cut by a percentage, savings in rand, or a project delivered on budget.
  • If you hold a GCC, say which one and when you got it. It opens senior plant posts.
