General Workers Job Opportunity at City of Tshwane

Okay, I need to rewrite this job posting to make it more professional and natural while keeping the language simple. Let me start by understanding the original content.

First, the job title and reference code are clear, so I’ll keep those. The closing date should be formatted consistently, maybe as “11 June 2025” for clarity.

The job level and salary info is a bit messy. I’ll separate them into distinct lines for readability. The estimated remuneration package should be clearly presented too.

The job purpose is straightforward, but I can make it more concise. Instead of “To assist the team leader…”, maybe “Assist the team leader in performing wastewater collection tasks, including clearing sewer blockages.”

Application requirements are listed, but I can bullet them for better structure. I’ll also make sure terms like “wastewater” are consistent (instead of “waste water”). The part about criminal checks can be worded more professionally.

Personal attributes can be formatted as a bullet list. I’ll make sure each point is clear and concise without redundancies.

Primary functions are a bit lengthy. I’ll break them into bullet points as well, using simpler verbs like “Clear”, “Load”, “Assist” to start each point.

I’ll ensure all the important details like position IDs and contact info are included but neatly formatted.

Finally, I’ll remove any unnecessary jargon and ensure the language is easy to understand while maintaining professionalism. I’ll check for consistency in terms like “sewer” vs. “wastewater” and make sure all points are logically ordered.
