LAWNMOWER OPERATORS Job Opportunity at City of Tshwane

Okay, I need to rewrite this job post to make it more professional and natural while keeping the language simple. Let me break it down step by step.

First, the original post has the job title as “LAWNMOWER OPERATOR (2 POSTS)”. I’ll make that cleaner by using capitalization and spacing, maybe “Lawnmower Operator (2 Positions Available)”. Sounds better.

The reference code and closing date are next. I’ll keep them but maybe label them clearly as “Reference Number” and “Application Deadline”. The job level and salary info can be presented in bullet points for clarity. The original has two salary figures; I need to ensure both are included but formatted neatly.

Job Purpose is straightforward, but I can make it more concise: “To maintain grass and green areas across parks, traffic islands, and sports facilities.”

Application Requirements are listed but a bit jumbled. I’ll separate them into a bullet list, making sure to include all points like literacy, lawnmower course, experience, physical fitness, shift work, and the criminal check. I should note that the fingerprinting is at the applicant’s cost.

Personal Attributes section can be streamlined. Words like “no physical disabilities” might need softening to “physical ability to perform tasks” to sound more inclusive. Emphasize working outdoors and under various conditions.

Primary Functions are mostly about grass cutting and maintenance. I’ll rephrase to make it active: “Operate lawnmowers and brush cutters to maintain grass in all designated areas.”

Position IDs and Enquiries can be at the end. I’ll list the contacts neatly, maybe with “For more information, contact:” to make it friendly.

I’ll avoid any HTML tags except the span as instructed. Keep paragraphs short and use line breaks for spacing. No styling, just plain text with simple formatting for readability.

Double-checking to ensure all original info is included and nothing is missed. Make sure the tone is professional yet approachable, suitable for a wide audience. Alright, ready to structure it clearly.
