Full-time

How2Apply Talent Network

This position requires local presence. Please view similar jobs below.

Handy with a drill, a paintbrush and a tap washer? The retirement village in Pretoria West has a list waiting for you. If you like clear targets and knowing where you stand, this is for you.

You'll be based at a retirement village in Pretoria West. Living nearby, or on a taxi route to it, really helps.

The work, day to day

  • Check fire extinguishers, emergency lights and escape routes on a monthly checklist
  • Get quotes from outside contractors and let them in for bigger jobs
  • Keep the maintenance store tidy and track stock used
  • Change globes, fluorescent tubes and plug covers (no DB work)
  • Hang doors, fit locks and adjust sliding door rails

What you need

  • Available for the occasional weekend emergency
  • Your own tools are a plus, but safe tool handling is a must
  • At least 2 years of general building maintenance work you can back up with references
  • Grade 10 at least; matric is a plus

Helpful, not essential

  • Basic first aid certificate
  • Experience with a work order system on a phone app

What you get

  • Training on specialised equipment like gate motors and pool plant
  • On-site accommodation at some estates
  • Uniform and safety boots supplied

Applying, step by step

  2. Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: references from previous maintenance jobs plus highest school or trade certificate.
  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 9 working days.
