Job Description

You'll do the heavy cleaning at a poultry processing plant in Vanderbijlpark, the kind that needs machines, chemicals and training. People who do well here are steady, honest and not scared to ask when something is unclear.

The work is in Vanderbijlpark, Gauteng, so you'll need a reliable way to get there every day. Start is planned for the beginning of next month.

The work, day to day

  • Foam, scrub and rinse walls, floors and conveyors with approved chemicals
  • Clean drains and grease traps in commercial kitchens
  • Put out and check pest bait stations on the site map
  • Test sanitiser strength with test strips and record the reading
  • Run a high-pressure washer on grease, oil and slurry build-up

What you need

  • Able to pass a medical fitness check for plant work
  • Physically strong for wet, heavy work
  • Not scared of heights for window or rope crews
  • Respect for chemical safety and PPE
  • Grade 10 or better; you must read chemical labels and safety data sheets
  • Reliable, as crews are small and each person counts

Nice if you have

  • Experience using a high-pressure washer or carpet extractor
  • Pest control registration under the fumigation rules

What's in it for you

  • Night-shift and standby allowances
  • Higher hourly rate than standard cleaning
  • Paid training on machines and chemicals
  • Full PPE: waterproof suits, boots, goggles and respirators

Applying, step by step

  1. Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
  2. Keep copies of these ready to send: recent medical fitness certificate if you have one, machine, chemical or heights certificates plus copy of your South African ID.
  3. Fill in the short form below with your name and a phone number you actually answer.
  4. Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 8 working days.
