Job Description

The electrical contractor design office in Klerksdorp needs a draughtsperson who gets the dimensions right the first time. People who do well here are steady, honest and not scared to ask when something is unclear.

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

What you'll actually do

  • Model steel structures in Tekla and produce shop drawings and cutting lists
  • Follow SANS 10111 drawing conventions and the office title block standard
  • Take site measurements to check existing conditions
  • Draft civil layouts, longitudinal sections and cross sections for services
  • Check shop drawings from subcontractors against design drawings

Must-haves

  • Able to read engineers' mark-ups and ask the right questions
  • Neat and accurate, with a habit of checking your own work
  • Understanding of engineering drawing standards and tolerances
  • At least 2 years working as a draughtsperson in your discipline
  • National Diploma or N6 in Mechanical, Civil or Electrical Engineering, or a draughting qualification
  • Advanced skills in AutoCAD plus one 3D package

Helpful, not essential

  • Workshop or site background
  • Registration with ECSA as a Candidate Engineering Technician

What's in it for you

  • Paid training on new software
  • Two-screen workstation
  • Hybrid work once you are settled in
  • Latest CAD software licences
