Careers

Working at PVCWelder means supporting the people who make tarpaulins, banners and tents work on site, in workshops and on the road. We hire practical people who are careful with machinery, comfortable with customers, and steady around high-frequency and hot-air welding equipment.

Careers

Where the workshop meets the road

Our day-to-day work ranges from machine installation and commissioning to fault finding, preventive servicing and site callouts. That means careers here are not limited to one task. A technician may be checking tooling alignment in Germiston one morning and assisting with seam testing at a tarpaulin workshop in Johannesburg or Pretoria the next. The work suits people who can handle detail, stay calm under pressure and keep a tidy job card.

Roles we hire for

We recruit for hands-on and customer-facing roles across service, parts and training. Some people work mainly on machinery, while others focus on orders, planning, demonstrations or support. The team also includes people who can explain seam types, hems, keder fitment and eyelet work without overcomplicating the job.

  • Service technicians for high-frequency, hot-air and hot-wedge welders
  • Installation and commissioning support
  • Operator training and workshop demonstrations
  • Parts and support administration
  • Sales and client liaison for tarpaulin, banner and tent makers

What the work asks from you

We look for steady hands, good judgement and respect for machinery safety. Our equipment works with heat, pressure and electrical systems, so attention to guarding, set-up, earthing and correct operating practice matters every day. People who are comfortable reading a machine, noticing wear early and keeping records properly tend to do well here. A practical trade background helps, but so does a willingness to learn and follow procedure.

  • Care with tools, electrodes, rollers and heating elements
  • Clear communication with workshop teams and clients
  • Ability to work neatly around PVC-coated fabrics and accessories
  • Willingness to travel for installations, training or site callouts

Support work across South Africa

Our work reaches Germiston, Johannesburg, Pretoria, Durban, Cape Town, Bloemfontein, Boksburg and Benoni, and many jobs involve travel to fabrication shops and signage plants. Coastal humidity in Durban and Cape Town can affect storage, rollers and electrical parts, while inland workshops often need help with dust, heat and heavy daily use. Careers here often involve seeing how machinery performs in different conditions and helping clients keep seams consistent on long runs, hems, banners, keder and tarpaulin panels.

Training, servicing and parts matter here

We value people who understand that a well-run machine does not happen by luck. Training, servicing and parts support all sit close together in this business. A good candidate can explain a setting change, replace worn parts carefully and keep a client informed while the job is underway. There is real value in people who can spot trouble before it turns into downtime, especially where production depends on reliable weld quality.

  • Preventive servicing and fault tracing
  • Electrode refurbishment and roller replacement
  • Seam testing and tooling alignment
  • Parts supply and workshop support
