Job description

Qualified Plumber

Luxury Safari & Hospitality Property | Waterberg, Limpopo

A career opportunity for a skilled, hands-on Plumber to join a professional Maintenance Team

Our client is a prestigious luxury safari and hospitality operation situated within the spectacular Waterberg region of Limpopo. The property combines high-end guest accommodation, lodge facilities and extensive infrastructure within a private game reserve environment.

We are seeking a formally qualified and experienced Plumber to join the property's support team and work closely with the Maintenance Manager to ensure that all plumbing systems, fixtures and related infrastructure are maintained to a consistently high standard.

This is a practical, hands-on position suited to a reliable tradesperson who takes pride in quality workmanship and understands the importance of preventative maintenance within a remote luxury hospitality environment.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Carry out routine and preventative plumbing maintenance across the property.
• Diagnose and repair plumbing faults, leaks, blockages and water-pressure problems.
• Maintain and repair hot- and cold-water systems, pipes, valves, pumps, toilets, showers and related fixtures.
• Install, repair and replace plumbing equipment and components as required.
• Assist with maintenance and repairs in guest accommodation, lodge facilities, staff areas and back-of-house infrastructure.
• Respond promptly to plumbing-related breakdowns and maintenance requests.
• Conduct regular inspections to identify potential plumbing failures before they become major problems.
• Assist with general maintenance projects where required and within the scope of your skills.
• Work closely with the Maintenance Manager and broader maintenance team on planned maintenance programmes.
• Maintain accurate records of maintenance work, repairs, materials and replacement components.
• Ensure all work is completed safely, efficiently and to a high professional standard.
• Maintain a clean, organised and safe working environment.
• Adhere to all applicable health, safety and operational procedures.

MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS

• Able to work in a remote bush/lodge environment.

THE IDEAL CANDIDATE

The successful candidate will be more than simply a plumber. You will be a hands-on maintenance professional who understands that in a luxury hospitality environment, even a relatively minor plumbing fault can have a direct impact on the guest experience.

You should be practical, resourceful and able to troubleshoot problems effectively, often with limited access to outside contractors or suppliers. Experience working in a lodge, hotel, safari property, estate or other remote operational environment would be a significant advantage.

You must be comfortable working as part of a multidisciplinary maintenance team and be willing to assist with general maintenance requirements when necessary.
