Tiler (Floors & Wet Areas)

Good, straight work gets noticed on this low-cost housing project in Roodepoort, and so does turning up every day. If you like clear targets and knowing where you stand, this is for you.

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

• Fix roof trusses, purlins and brandering for ceilings
• Wear your hard hat, boots and harness wherever the foreman says
• Mix mortar and plaster to the right ratio for the job
• Carry bricks and materials to the workface and keep the scaffold clear
• Prime and paint walls, ceilings and woodwork in two or three coats
• Clean your tools and sweep your work area before knocking off

• Physically strong enough for a full day of lifting and bending outside
• Proven experience in at least one trade, shown by references or a practical test
• Willing to move between sites in the same city
• Punctual every morning, even in winter

• Experience on NHBRC-registered housing projects
• CETA or NQF 2 or 3 certificate in your trade
• Trade test in bricklaying, carpentry or plastering

• Chance to move up to a gang leader post
• PPE supplied: hard hat, gloves, reflective vest
• Weekly or fortnightly pay, always on time

• Be ready to do a short practical test on site. Arrive early with your own tools if you have them.
• Bring photos of your work on your phone. A foreman believes a straight wall more than a long CV.
