About the role

Your day-to-day role

You will not be sitting down all day: the job involves electrical maintenance at an industrial facility, with written procedures and documentation close at hand. The official advertisement outlines your day-to-day tasks as follows:

• Contribute to resolving punch list items on electrical systems and rectifying electrical faults that arise during commissioning and start-up;
• Diagnose faults in pneumatic and electronic loops;
• Conduct technical investigations, study failure causes, and examine the installation;
• Propose and support equipment modifications — and be on standby duty when the start-up phase requires it;
• Familiarise yourself with plant maintenance documentation and the work planning system;
• Understand and apply the company's Safety Management Systems, knowing what to do during emergency procedures;
• Read, interpret, and implement risk assessments for each task, including hazard identification;
• Attend daily meetings to align tasks and provide progress updates to the supervisor;
• Participate in Root Cause Analysis (RCA) and Potential Deviation Analysis (PDA) to make the plant safer and more stable;
• Perform inspections logged in SAP, helping keep the plant sustainable in the long term;
• Coordinate team work, guide apprentices, and share knowledge with junior artisans;
• Maintain accurate equipment history records — essential for sound refurbishments and the equipaly replacement of critical spares;
• Contribute to toolbox talks and identify opportunities to improve your surrounding workplace.

Who we are looking for

This role is for someone building a solid career as an industrial electrician: the qualifications and years of experience required by Sasol are detailed in the requirements section of this posting. What matters most here is how you work.

You work well in a team, because maintenance relies on coordination with production and colleagues from other disciplines — when a breakdown halts operations, you are the one they call, and your response is your calling card.

You enjoy a methodical approach: observe, measure, test, solve. You do not cut corners on safety procedures, because at a facility of this scale, safety is the primary working tool. You also share your knowledge — guiding those starting out is part of being a Grade 2 artisan.

Sasol values professionals who take ownership of their personal growth: reflecting on work completed, requesting feedback, and adjusting course when results fall short. If you see yourself in this description, review the requirements and submit your application.
