Responsibilities

Quality Control & Inspection

• Document, classify, and report all non-conformances identified during production, actively participating in root cause investigations using techniques such as fishbone analysis and five-why methodology to prevent recurrence of the same defects.
• Perform in-process inspections at defined checkpoints during production to verify dimensional accuracy, weld integrity, surface finish, and compliance with quality control plans, releasing only conforming parts for the next operation in the production sequence.
• Carry out final inspection and testing of finished products against engineering drawings, customer specifications, and relevant SANS or ISO standards, preparing inspection reports and certificates of conformance for each completed production batch.

Safety & Workshop Management

• Maintain a clean, organised, and efficient workshop environment following 5S principles by sorting, setting in order, shining, standardising, and sustaining work area organisation, tool storage, and material storage across all workstations and storage zones.
• Enforce strict adherence to occupational health and safety regulations and company safety policies within the workshop, including correct PPE usage, compliance with lockout and tagout procedures, and safe operation of overhead cranes and forklifts by licensed operators.
• Coordinate the safe storage and handling of hazardous substances including welding gases, solvents, and cutting fluids, ensuring safety data sheets are available at points of use and that emergency spill response procedures are understood and practised by all workshop staff.

Requirements

• Strong understanding of occupational health and safety regulations and a demonstrated commitment to safe working practices.
• Physical fitness to stand for extended periods, handle heavy materials, and work in an industrial environment with noise and heat.
• Experience in operating material handling equipment including overhead cranes and forklifts with relevant licences.
• A recognised trade certificate in boilermaking, welding, fitting, fitting and turning, or millwrighting from a relevant training authority.
• The ability to read and interpret complex engineering drawings, welding symbols, and work instructions to produce components to specification.
• For welding roles, proven competency in multiple welding processes and ability to pass welder qualification tests.
• For quality inspection roles, proficiency in using precision measuring instruments and knowledge of inspection techniques and sampling plans.
