TLB Operator (Civil Works)

The quarry and aggregate supplier in Germiston needs an operator who looks after the machine as well as the job. People who do well here are steady, honest and not scared to ask when something is unclear.

This post is Germiston-based, with most of your time spent at a quarry and aggregate supplier.

• Watch for underground services and follow the banksman's signals
• Do the pre-start checklist on your machine before the first bucket
• Backfill and compact around pipes in layers
• Grease the machine daily and report leaks or damage straight away
• Record machine hours and fuel on the daily plant sheet

• Valid Code 10 licence for moving machines on public roads
• Operator certificate for the machine class, from an accredited training provider
• Willing to work on projects outside your home town
• At least 2 years operating the machine on construction sites
• Can read grade pegs and understand cut and fill

• Camp accommodation or a living-out allowance on remote sites
• Overtime paid on all hours past 45 a week
• Refresher training on new machines
• Travel home paid at the end of each site shift cycle

• Put your operator certificate numbers on the CV. Site safety files need them before you start.
• List each machine with its size, for example "20-ton excavator, 4 years". Plant managers match you to the machine they need.
