Job Description

The high-rise residential project in Mamelodi needs a safety officer who is on the site, not stuck in the container office. You don't need to be the loudest person in the room, just the one others can count on.

The work is in Mamelodi, Gauteng, so you'll need a reliable way to get there every day.

What you'll actually do

  • Write and review risk assessments and safe work method statements
  • Compile and maintain the site health and safety file under the Construction Regulations 2014
  • Inspect scaffolds, excavations and edge protection daily
  • Keep appointment letters and competency certificates in the file
  • Investigate incidents and near misses and report them on time
  • Run site inductions for every new worker and visitor

What you need

  • At least 2 years as a safety officer on construction sites
  • SAMTRAC or an NQF-accredited health and safety qualification
  • Confident enough to stop unsafe work, even when the programme is tight
  • First Aid Level 1 at least

What you get

  • Laptop and data for reporting
  • Paid SACPCMP renewal and CPD
  • Clear growth path to a construction health and safety agent role
  • Travel and site allowances

How to apply

  1. Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): First aid certificate plus SAMTRAC or safety qualification certificate.
  3. Use the form on this page. It takes about two minutes and you don't need to upload anything yet.
  4. Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 7 working days.

How2Apply recruits for this position on behalf of hiring employers around Mamelodi; applications go into our talent pool and shortlisted candidates are introduced directly.

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

  • Put your SACPCMP registration number and category first. Many CVs without it are rejected without being read.
  • Bring a sample risk assessment or safety file index you drew up (remove client names). It shows your work better than a list.
