What You Need to Qualify

To apply for this position, you must have:

  • Grade 12 (Matric)
  • At least 1 year of experience doing maintenance work in a feed factory or similar environment.

If you don’t have a formal qualification in mechanics or electricity, that’s okay. What matters most is that you have basic knowledge and practical experience.


What Will You Be Doing Every Day?

Here’s what your daily tasks may include:

  • Helping skilled artisans fix and maintain machines and tools.
  • Giving helpful advice about parts that need repair or replacement.
  • Making sure the factory machines are always ready to work.
  • Keeping your work area and tools clean and organized.
  • Wearing your PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) and following safety rules.
  • Helping to reduce risks that could affect food safety.
  • Being part of HACCP (food safety system) activities and following hygiene rules.
  • Working overtime when necessary.

You’ll also need to stick to your working hours and always be on time.


What Skills Will Help You Succeed?

If you have these abilities, this job could be perfect for you:

  • You’re good with your hands and like fixing things.
  • You understand basic electrical and mechanical work.
  • You enjoy solving problems and thinking ahead.
  • You’re willing to work hard and can handle overtime.
  • You’re neat, safety-aware, and take your job seriously.

  • Start a long-term career in maintenance or mechanics.
  • Work for a respected company that cares about safety and quality.
  • Gain practical experience while learning from skilled workers.
  • Be part of South Africa’s agricultural growth.

And if you already have some experience, it’s your chance to move one step closer to becoming a qualified artisan.
