Step into an exciting technical role with real impact and growth opportunities!

Is this you?

You’re a hands-on technician with a solid grounding in mechanical and electrical systems, and a real passion for service excellence. You enjoy solving technical challenges, thrive in fast-paced environments, and bring a proactive, safety-conscious mindset to every task. You’re a strong communicator, detail-oriented, and work well in collaborative teams. If you’re self-motivated and eager to grow, this role is calling your name.

What you’ll be doing (and why you’ll enjoy it)

You’ll be the go-to person for maintaining and repairing key machinery, ensuring everything runs like clockwork. From troubleshooting and diagnosing faults to routine servicing and implementing safety checks, your work will be vital in supporting production. You’ll work closely with cross-functional teams, help upskill junior staff, and play a role in continuous improvement initiatives – all while developing your own skills in a supportive, growth-driven environment.

Where you’ll be doing it

You’ll be based at the workshop, at engineering and client production sites in Cape Town, working with an established and expanding business that delivers innovative turnkey solutions for the food and beverage manufacturing as well as the logistics industry. Known for their technical excellence and strong team culture, they offer a dynamic environment where engineering talent is nurtured and appreciated.

What you’ll need

You’ll have a technical qualification with 3–5 years’ relevant experience in mechanical and electrical systems. Confidence reading technical drawings, a good eye for detail, and strong problem-solving skills are essential. A valid driver’s licence as well as your own vehicle, and flexibility to travel are must-haves.

What you’ll get

What truly sets this company apart is its inclusive, growth-oriented culture. As a well-established, family-owned and managed business, it offers a supportive environment where your input is valued, your contributions are recognised, and long-term careers are built — reflected in the loyalty of team members who choose to stay for many years.
