**To Apply fill in this form:** https://forms.gle/DHkJxReTvAmsNmJU9

**The Role**

We are looking for a Manufacturing Team Lead for our electrical automation workshop. This is a hands\-on role: about 70% of your time will be spent on the tools, building electrical panels, automation systems and products, testing them and making them better. The other 30% is keeping the workshop aligned: the job list, the schedule and making sure parts arrive on time.

This role is about ownership. What leaves our workshop is yours: its quality, its timing and how it performs on site. If you would rather build than sit behind a desk, but you can also keep a workshop organised, we want to hear from you.

**How We Work**

Ownership comes first. You do not wait to be told. You see the bigger picture, develop the people around you, earn trust across the workshop and site teams, and have the backbone to disagree, then commit and deliver. Customer obsession: the highest standards, a bias for action and results. Innovation: curiosity, frugality and diving deep until a problem is properly solved.

**On the Tools (about 70%)**

* Build electrical panels, DB boards, control systems and automation products from drawings and BOMs.
* Wire, assemble and test equipment alongside the team, and set the standard on workmanship.
* Review electrical drawings and QC builds against our standards and applicable regulations before sign\-off.
* QC and test every product before it leaves the workshop, and keep the records.
* Log failures, find the root cause and make sure the fix goes into the next build.
* Take feedback from the site team on installs and failures, and turn it into product and process improvements.

**Keeping It Aligned (about 30%)**

* Run the job list: set priorities, allocate work to the team and track progress against project deadlines.
* Check BOMs against stock ahead of each job and flag shortfalls early.
* Submit stock requests to procurement with enough lead time, and follow up so parts arrive on time.
* Keep the workshop safe, clean and organised.

**Who We’re Looking For**

* Ideally, you are an electrician, millwright or electrical engineer who has been building electrical panels and systems and knows electrical drawings inside out. If you come from the drawing side but are genuinely happy to get hands\-on, we would also like to hear from you.
* A qualified electrician, millwright or electrical engineer (or equivalent trade experience).
* Proven experience building electrical panels, control systems or automation equipment.
* Strong ability to read electrical drawings and wiring diagrams and check them against a standard.
* Happy to get involved mechanically and in general production, not only the electrical work.
* Organised enough to run a job list, with good computer literacy (spreadsheets, email, job tools).
* A valid driver's licence and own transport.

Electrical Automation Manufacturing Team Lead

HC Heat Exchangers builds HVAC, refrigeration and heat exchange equipment in Germiston. EC\&I, our electrical, controls and instrumentation department, was set up this year to design, build and test the control panels and DBs that go into it. This is the department's design seat, and you will help build how it works.

Reporting to the Head of EC\&I.

What you will do

\- Design the SLD and DB layout for every quote: protection, breaker and cable sizing, control power and earthing, with the calculations on file

\- Check and release the wiring diagrams and DB drawings before they go to the factory

\- Check the electrical BOM, and approve any substitution before it is bought

\- Own UL, CE, IEC and SANS compliance on our panels

\- Spot\-check testing on the lines, and do insulation tests where the job calls for them

\- Go to site when an engineer is needed, and trace faults back to the design

\- Teach the draughting team and the floor the reasoning behind our electrical standard

What you need

\- National Diploma in Electrical Engineering (NQF 6\), or Advanced Diploma, BTech or BEngTech (NQF 7\). Heavy current preferred

\- 3 years or more designing LV switchgear, control panels or industrial electrical systems, including the calculations

\- Working knowledge of IEC 61439, IEC 60204\-1 and SANS 10142\-1

\- AutoCAD Electrical, or another device\-based electrical design package

\- Valid driver's licence, and willing to travel to site

An advantage

\- UL 508A, and what CE marking asks of a control panel

\- Registration as an Installation Electrician (wireman's licence)

You are as comfortable on the factory floor and on site as at the desk, and confident enough to say no to a design and put the reason in writing.

Apply here, it takes about five minutes: https://tally.so/r/J97EYX

Pay: R1,00 \- R999 999,00 per month

Application Question(s):

* What monthly cost\-to\-company (CTC) salary do you expect, in Rand?
* Have you completed a National Diploma (NQF 6\) or higher in Electrical Engineering?
* Are you legally allowed to work in South Africa?
* Can you commute daily to Germiston (Elandsfontein)?
