Structural Steel Detailer (Tekla)

The civil and structural consultancy in Fourways needs a draughtsperson who gets the dimensions right the first time. If you learn fast and don't mind being shown things twice, you'll settle in within a few weeks.

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