If you’re seeking a professional entry point into the world of administration, Sasol’s Administration Learnerships might be worth your attention. As one of South Africa’s leading names in the energy and chemical industries, Sasol is currently providing 50 learnership positions—an unusually high number—aimed at equipping young South Africans with practical and theoretical skills in office administration.
The Sasol Administration Learnership is a 12-month structured programme targeting unemployed youth. The initiative blends academic instruction with hands-on experience, culminating in a recognized qualification (typically at NQF Level 4). This is part of Sasol’s broader commitment to skills development and empowerment through education and workplace learning.
With 50 posts available, this opportunity stands out for its scale. Prospective candidates who meet the entry requirements and submit strong applications will be considered for placement. The learnerships are hosted at Sasol’s various sites, including locations in Mpumalanga, Gauteng, and the Free State. Prospective applicants should consult individual listings for specific placement sites.
Eligibility criteria are as follows:
– South African citizenship
– Age between 18 and 35 years
– Unemployed (not engaged in full-time study)
– Completed Grade 12/Matric with passes in English and Mathematics or Mathematical Literacy
– Basic proficiency in Microsoft Word, Excel, and Outlook

– Willingness to commit to the full 12-month programme
Preference may be given to candidates from designated groups in accordance with Sasol’s Employment Equity policy.
Participants will develop skills in areas including general office administration, document control, data entry, basic financial administration, customer service, reception, internal communication, compliance, and corporate governance. Additionally, candidates will cultivate workplace competencies such as time management, teamwork, and problem-solving.
Benefits include a monthly stipend to cover basic expenses and, upon successful completion, a nationally recognized qualification.
