A Civil Engineer with practical experience in building civils is needed for building and property development projects in the Western Cape, with applications closing on 28 December 2026. The role suits a technically capable professional who understands local municipal requirements and can step into development work with confidence.
About the company and the work
The vacancy is advertised by Goldman Tech Resourcing, trading as Stand-Out Staffing, a South African recruitment company working across IT, finance and mining-related sectors and focusing on niche segments of the market. Its client is looking for a civil engineer who can contribute to projects across Cape Town, bringing relevant development experience and an understanding of how to navigate the City of Cape Town’s procedures, technical requirements and approval processes. This is a permanent role in the engineering sector, based in the Western Cape.
Role details and duties
You will provide civil engineering input on building and property development projects, helping to shape the civil works that support new buildings and developments. Your work will include coordinating design information, technical submissions and project documentation so that everyone on the project is working from the same approved information. You will engage with municipal departments and project stakeholders to support approvals and compliance, making sure civil works align with approved designs, project specifications and applicable regulations. You will collaborate with multidisciplinary teams to keep projects moving efficiently, and you will identify and address technical issues throughout the project lifecycle, from early design through to delivery.
Requirements
Applicants need a BEng in Civil Engineering. You must have demonstrable experience in building civils or development-related civil engineering, and familiarity with City of Cape Town processes, standards and approval requirements. The advert also asks for excellent problem-solving and organisational abilities, a proactive approach, and the ability to work with minimal supervision. Candidates with relevant building civils experience and local municipal knowledge are encouraged to apply. Only shortlisted candidates will be contacted.
Where to find and apply safely

Practical tips
Lead with your building civils experience, giving concrete examples of development projects you have worked on and the civil inputs you provided. Show that you understand City of Cape Town approval processes by describing a project where you dealt with municipal submissions or compliance requirements. Keep your CV focused on development-related civil engineering rather than unrelated infrastructure work, and be ready to discuss how you have resolved technical issues on live projects.
