Structural Engineer (Buildings) – Immediate Start

Roads, water, buildings: the bulk water utility in Secunda needs a civil engineer who can take a project from design to site. Someone who likes a bit of variety, but also likes doing things the right way, will enjoy this.

You'll report in Secunda. Relocation is not covered for this one. Weekend work is on a roster, so you won't be on every weekend.

• Review geotechnical reports and choose suitable foundations
• Check drawings from technicians and sign them for issue
