Meeting the minimum requirements does not automatically guarantee selection. Applicants must still satisfy the relevant assessment and recruitment conditions.

What Will the Learnership Involve?

The official advert identifies two main responsibilities for the successful candidate:

• Personal performance: Participate in the training programme and meet the expectations associated with it.
• Compliance with company rules: Follow Exxaro’s applicable rules and regulations throughout the contract.

The advert does not provide a detailed list of daily administrative duties or a module-by-module training plan. Applicants should therefore avoid assuming that the position includes specific tasks such as payroll, procurement or data capturing unless Exxaro confirms these responsibilities. The programme offers a defined period of workplace learning, but candidates should be prepared to follow the training arrangements set by the company.

Selection Process: What Applicants Should Expect

Exxaro lists several conditions that candidates must successfully complete before they can be accepted into the programme.

These include:

• The company’s selection process.
• Interviews.
• A psychometric assessment conducted by Exxaro.
• A medical certificate of fitness assessment conducted by Exxaro.

Applicants should monitor their contact details and respond promptly if Exxaro requests additional information or invites them to an assessment. The company specifically notes that successfully completing the listed conditions does not automatically secure acceptance. Final selection remains subject to the recruitment process.

Is a Stipend Provided?

Yes. Exxaro confirms that a monthly stipend will be paid throughout the 12-month contract. However, the official advert does not disclose the amount. Applicants should not rely on figures published elsewhere unless they can be confirmed directly by Exxaro. It is also important to plan for living expenses before accepting an offer. The vacancy states that Exxaro does not provide accommodation, so candidates who need to relocate to Belfast should consider rent, transport, meals and other regular costs.

Skills That Can Help You Prepare

Although the advert does not specify a separate list of technical skills, candidates interested in business administration may benefit from developing the following abilities:

• Organisation: Keeping information and documents in order.
• Communication: Sharing information clearly and professionally.
• Attention to detail: Checking information carefully and following instructions.
• Time management: Completing assigned activities within the required timeframe.
• Willingness to learn: Adapting to workplace procedures and training expectations.
• Professional conduct: Following company rules and working responsibly with colleagues.

These are general skills relevant to administrative workplace learning, not additional formal requirements stated in the vacancy.

Why Consider a Business Administration Learnership?

Business administration supports the everyday operations of organisations across many industries, including mining. A workplace learning opportunity can help participants understand professional expectations, build confidence and gain exposure to how a company operates.

For young people with Matric who are looking for an entry point into the workplace, a structured 12-month programme may be a useful step towards developing relevant experience.

However, the advert does not guarantee permanent employment after the programme. Candidates should view the learnership as a training opportunity and make the most of the experience if selected.

Important Information Before Applying

Before submitting an application, remember the following:

• The closing date is 16 October 2026.
• The programme is based in Belfast, Mpumalanga.
• Applicants must have Grade 12 / Matric and be younger than 35.
• A valid driver’s licence is an advantage, not a stated compulsory requirement.
• Preference will be given to applicants from Emakhazeni Municipality.
• A monthly stipend is provided, but the amount is not disclosed.
• Accommodation is not provided.
• Selection includes interviews, psychometric assessment and a medical fitness assessment.

For young people who have completed school or technical studies and want to develop practical skills, this opportunity may provide a starting point towards a career in industrial maintenance. Applicants should make sure they meet the minimum subject requirements before applying.

About the Sasol Artisan Maintenance Learnership

A learnership combines practical workplace learning with structured or institutional learning. Rather than relying only on classroom study, participants take part in a programme that includes workplace exposure and formal assessments.

Sasol’s Artisan Maintenance Learnership runs for three years under a fixed-term contract. Learners are expected to participate in the programme, complete the assessment process successfully and take part in the required workplace-readiness activities. The training streams cover different areas of industrial maintenance, so applicants should consider which trade best matches their qualifications and long-term career interests.

Available Learnership Fields

The official Sasol vacancy lists the following five fields:

1. Mechanical Fitter

This field is suited to candidates interested in mechanical equipment, machinery and industrial maintenance. Mechanical fitting is an important trade in facilities where equipment needs to be maintained and kept in working condition.

2. Instrumentation

Instrumentation focuses on the devices and systems used to measure and monitor industrial processes. It may appeal to candidates interested in technical systems, measurements and process control.

3. Electrician

The electrical trade is relevant to candidates who want to develop skills in electrical systems and maintenance. Electrical work in industrial environments requires technical knowledge and careful attention to safety.

4. Welding

Welding involves joining metal components using specialised processes and equipment. It is a practical trade used in fabrication, construction, repairs and industrial maintenance.

5. Rigging

Rigging involves preparing and handling loads and equipment for lifting and positioning. It is an important activity in industrial settings where heavy machinery and components must be moved safely.

Important: These are the learnership fields listed in the vacancy. The advert does not provide a detailed training syllabus for each trade, so applicants should consult Sasol’s official recruitment page for any further information.

Minimum Requirements for the Sasol Learnership 2026

Applicants must meet one of the two academic routes below.

Option 1: National Senior Certificate (Matric)

Candidates must have a completed National Senior Certificate or equivalent, with passes in the following subjects:

• Technical Mathematics or Mathematics
• English
• Technical Science or Physical Science

Option 2: N3 Qualification

Candidates may also qualify with a completed N3 National Senior Certificate comprising six subjects, with passes in:

• Mathematics
• English
• Engineering Science

Applicants should check their certificates and results carefully before applying. The subjects listed in the official advert are important, so candidates should not assume that a different subject will automatically be accepted as a substitute. The vacancy does not specify a minimum age, a required amount of previous work experience or a stipend amount. Applicants should avoid relying on unverified claims about these details.

Programme Duties and Learning Commitments

The official advert identifies two main programme commitments:

• Participation in the learnership: Learners must take part in the programme and successfully complete the required assessment process.
• Workplace readiness: Participants must take part in all required workplace-readiness activities and exercises.

These commitments mean that successful applicants should be prepared to learn, participate actively and meet the programme’s assessment requirements throughout the training period.

The exact daily duties will depend on the trade and training arrangements. Candidates should not assume that every learner will perform identical tasks across all five fields.

Skills and Competencies That May Help

Although the official vacancy focuses mainly on academic eligibility and programme participation, certain qualities can help candidates prepare for a technical learning environment.

• Commitment to learning: A willingness to understand new technical concepts and put them into practice.
• Attention to detail: Important when following instructions and working with equipment or technical information.
• Problem-solving: The ability to think logically when faced with unfamiliar tasks.
• Teamwork: Industrial work often requires people to coordinate tasks and communicate clearly.
• Safety awareness: A responsible approach to workplace rules and instructions.
• Reliability: Being prepared to participate in training activities and complete assigned assessments.

These are general qualities relevant to technical training, not additional formal minimum requirements stated in the vacancy.

Why Consider an Artisan Learnership?

Skilled trades play an important role in South Africa’s industrial, manufacturing, energy and engineering sectors. People with suitable technical training may pursue career opportunities in maintenance, electrical work, mechanical fitting, instrumentation, welding or rigging.

A structured learnership can help participants connect their academic knowledge with workplace learning. However, completing a learnership does not automatically guarantee permanent employment, and the official advert does not promise a permanent position after the 36-month programme. Candidates should therefore approach the opportunity as a chance to develop their technical skills and complete the required learning and assessments.

Sasol Learnership Closing Date

The closing date for the Sasol Learnership: Artisan Maintenance in Secunda is 23 October 2026. Interested applicants should review the official vacancy and submit their applications before the deadline.
