Work-Force
Bring your skills as a Skills Development Facilitator to Sabie and join a team that moves fast. This Mpumalanga role is one to watch.
About the Opportunity
The organisation is investing in its Sabie operation, and this Skills Development Facilitator position reflects that commitment. The successful candidate will work across the hr jobs function and contribute to the wider Mpumalanga business.
In addition, the successful applicant is given the room to plan, deliver and review their work without unnecessary noise. The organisation has built its Sabie team on trust, and the Skills Development Facilitator role will feel that from week one.
Reasonable working hours and respectful planning are part of how the role runs. The team values strong delivery, and load is balanced fairly across the hr jobs group in Sabie.
Internal documentation, process notes and shared playbooks make it easier for the Skills Development Facilitator to step into the hr jobs workflow quickly. Institutional knowledge is well-organised, so people are not reinventing the wheel from one week to the next.
Meet the Team
You will join a tight-knit, collaborative team that knows the hr jobs side of the business inside out. The Sabie group is a healthy mix of experienced operators and newer joiners, all of whom share a strong commitment to delivery and to one another.
Collaboration is the default working mode. Whether picking up a quick query or working through a complex project, you will find colleagues willing to lean in and help.
Notably, the team mix in Sabie reflects a balance of experienced operators and emerging talent, with deliberate space for diverse voices and backgrounds.
Line management is hands-on without being heavy. Expect regular one-to-ones, honest feedback and the support needed to do good work consistently.
Our Commitment to Transformation
Beyond that, the organisation is committed to transformation and equal opportunity. Hiring is on merit, and applications are actively encouraged from women, youth, people with disabilities and other historically disadvantaged groups in line with the Employment Equity plan and B-BBEE objectives.
Practical steps back the words. Structured EE reporting, transformation initiatives and learnership programmes give real opportunities to candidates from across Mpumalanga.
Inclusive hiring extends through onboarding and into how teams operate every day. Respectful, fair conduct is expected from every team member in Sabie.
B-BBEE compliance is more than a scorecard here. It informs how the business invests in skills development, supplier diversity and community engagement across the country.
What We Offer
Crucially, you will join a team that values respectful collaboration, honest feedback and shared wins. The Sabie colleagues take pride in supporting one another and in doing the hr jobs side of the business properly, day in and day out.
Recognition matters here. Strong performers are noticed quickly, and many promotions across the business have started in the Sabie teams.
Practically speaking, the company reinvests in its people: paid training, internal moves and the chance to take on bigger projects are all part of how careers in Sabie keep progressing.
Benefits are clear and consistent. Beyond the package on offer, the role includes the supports you would expect from an established South African employer in Mpumalanga.
Your Future Here
This role can grow with you. Strong performers in the hr jobs team in Sabie have moved into senior, supervisory and specialist positions, and that journey is supported through coaching, training and exposure to bigger projects.
Training is a mix of formal courses, structured on-the-job learning and exposure to broader projects, all geared at building practical skills.
Notably, internal mobility is encouraged. People who start in Sabie have moved into roles in other branches, specialist functions and project teams across Mpumalanga.
Growth conversations happen at a regular cadence — not just at year-end — so the path forward stays current and realistic for every Sabie team member.
