Site Safety Officer (Civil Projects) – Experienced

The renewable energy construction site in Sasolburg needs a safety officer who is on the site, not stuck in the container office. It's a practical job: you'll see what you got done before you go home.

The site is in Sasolburg; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying. Start is planned for the beginning of next month.
