A relevant trade test or N3 in Electrical or Mechanical Engineering is required. You're confident diagnosing and repairing faults, can manage your time effectively, and hold a valid driver's licence. Experience with electric forklifts will be a bonus, training is available if you're strong on the mechanical side. What you'll get: You'll earn a competitive, market-related salary with 100% medical aid cover and a portion to pension.
