Job Description

Clean water, safe roads and sound structures start with a good engineer at the structural design practice in Randburg. You'll work with a small crew, so being easy to work with matters as much as skill.

You'll report in Randburg. Relocation is not covered for this one.

What your day looks like

  • Prepare tender documents under GCC 2015 or NEC contracts
  • Design water pipelines, sewers and stormwater systems with hydraulic software
  • Act as resident engineer: inspect works, measure quantities and certify payments
  • Apply for municipal wayleaves and building plan approvals
  • Review geotechnical reports and choose suitable foundations
  • Write design reports and handover documents
  • Design reinforced concrete and steel structures to SANS 10100 and SANS 10162

You'll need

  • At least 3 years in design or construction supervision
  • Experience with structural or hydraulic design software
  • Able to explain technical issues to clients and contractors
  • Good grasp of South African design codes for your field

What's in it for you

  • Site allowance when you work as resident engineer
  • Professional development and mentorship toward Pr Eng
  • Flexible working on design weeks

How to apply
