Work-Force
Listing live now. We believe great workplaces are built on great people. We are looking for a Campaign Manager in Parys, and we encourage applicants from across Free State to consider this opportunity.
About the Opportunity
The Campaign Manager position is part of an ongoing recruitment drive across Free State. The brief has been shaped carefully, with a focus on delivery in Parys and across the marketing jobs space.
Expect a structured first ninety days, with onboarding milestones, regular check-ins, and an early focus on getting comfortable with the systems and processes that underpin the Parys team.
Stakeholders for this position include line managers, peers across the marketing jobs team and trusted external partners. Building those relationships early makes the next twelve months in Parys much easier.
Quality is everyone’s job. Whether the Campaign Manager is processing a transaction, supporting a colleague or handling a customer query, the standard expected in Free State is consistently high and consistently fair.
About the Team
Beyond that, the team you will be working with is fast-paced and energetic. Things move quickly across the Parys office, and the people who thrive here are the ones who plan ahead, communicate openly and pick up the slack when Free State operations get busy.
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.
On top of that, the team mix in Parys 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.
Career Growth
This role can grow with you. Strong performers in the marketing jobs team in Parys have moved into senior, supervisory and specialist positions, and that journey is supported through coaching, training and exposure to bigger projects.
Internal mobility is encouraged. People who start in Parys have moved into roles in other branches, specialist functions and project teams across Free State.
Training is a mix of formal courses, structured on-the-job learning and exposure to broader projects, all geared at building practical skills.
Growth conversations happen at a regular cadence — not just at year-end — so the path forward stays current and realistic for every Parys team member.
Diversity and Inclusion
Crucially, 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.
Inclusive hiring extends through onboarding and into how teams operate every day. Respectful, fair conduct is expected from every team member in Parys.
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.
Practical steps back the words. Structured EE reporting, transformation initiatives and learnership programmes give real opportunities to candidates from across Free State.
Based in Parys
Working in Parys means a place near the Sasolburg industrial complex, with a steady flow of activity and a strong local economy. The team has built solid relationships across the Free State region, and the Parys office benefits from those long-standing connections.
Many candidates already living within reach of Parys cite the location as one of the role’s quiet wins, with shorter commutes and a real sense of being plugged into the local Free State economy.
If you are relocating, the team can share practical pointers on neighbourhoods, transport and the typical pace of life in Parys, Free State.
Accessibility is taken seriously: where the role allows, the team works toward a balance of in-office presence and flexibility for candidates based in and around Parys.
The Environment
Notably, the environment is creative, deadline-driven and data-aware. Cross-functional work with sales, product and design is the norm, and ideas are tested with real audiences quickly.
Crucially, the working environment is set up to give the team the focus needed for deeper work, while keeping collaboration and quick problem-solving close at hand.
A respectful, professional environment is the standard in Free State. Bullying, harassment and unfair conduct have no place here, and managers are trained to act decisively when concerns are raised.
Health, safety and well-being are taken seriously. Current policies and procedures are maintained, and the Parys site adheres to the standards expected of a responsible South African employer.
