Work-Force
Applications are warmly invited for a Public Relations Officer role based in Lichtenburg. We welcome candidates from every background across North West who are ready to grow with us.
About the Opportunity
The Public Relations Officer vacancy forms part of how the Lichtenburg branch keeps performing. It pairs day-to-day delivery with longer-running priorities that keep the marketing jobs side of the business moving forward.
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 Lichtenburg team.
Notably, the role has been written to be sustainable, not just busy. Strong output is expected, and managers in Lichtenburg also pay attention to recovery, learning and the kind of breathing room that keeps people doing good work over time.
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 Lichtenburg much easier.
Your Workplace
Equally, 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.
A respectful, professional environment is the standard in North West. Bullying, harassment and unfair conduct have no place here, and managers are trained to act decisively when concerns are raised.

Practically speaking, 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.
Day in the Life
You usually start by scanning campaign dashboards over coffee, checking performance against targets and flagging anything that needs attention. Mornings are often given to creative work — briefing designers, refining copy, planning the next content drop — while afternoons mix stakeholder meetings, agency calls and a steady stream of approvals. In between, you’re watching what competitors are doing, listening to what customers are saying online, and shaping the next set of experiments to push the brand forward.
On top of that, the rhythm rewards people who plan ahead but also pivot quickly when North West operations throw up the unexpected.
No two days look exactly the same — and that variety is part of what keeps the role engaging for the right candidate in Lichtenburg.
Notably, the Lichtenburg office buzzes through peak hours and settles into focused, productive lulls in between, giving you time to plan and reset before the next stretch of work.

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.
