Truck Mechanic (Fleet Workshop)

Every hour a truck stands still costs money. This agricultural equipment dealer in Germiston needs a mechanic who can fix it quickly. It suits someone who likes knowing exactly what a good day's work looks like.

You'll report in Germiston. Relocation is not covered for this one. Start is planned for the beginning of next month.
