Job Description

Every wall and slab on this shopping centre renovation in Sandton needs labourers, and the crew needs one more. If you like clear targets and knowing where you stand, this is for you.

The site is in Sandton; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying.

What you'll actually do

Help offload deliveries of steel, timber and pipes
Set up barriers, cones and signs around open trenches
Mix concrete and mortar by hand or with a small mixer
Dig trenches and foundations to the depth the foreman marks
Clear rubble and load it into skips
Cut and lay paving bricks along string lines

You'll need

You take safety rules seriously and wear full PPE
Willing to start early, often at 06:30
Grade 8 or higher
A clean record is preferred for some government sites
Prepared to travel between sites in the area
Able to follow instructions from a foreman or artisan

Helpful, not essential

Some experience with a jackhammer, grinder or plate compactor
Living near the site (many projects hire local labour)

On offer

Paid weekly or fortnightly
Learn from artisans with a chance to move up to assistant
Overtime on weekend pours and deadline days

Applying, step by step

Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
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.
Fill in the short form below with your name and a phone number you actually answer.
Watch for a call or WhatsApp from How2Apply over the next 7 working days.

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

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

Government-funded projects often reserve jobs for people from the local ward. Bring proof of address and ask the site office about the local labour desk.
If a foreman can vouch for you, put their number on your CV. Site hiring runs on word of mouth.
