The Role

An experienced Loss Prevention Officer is needed to support operations in Thohoyandou. The role forms part of how the business keeps its legal and security jobs portfolio strong in Limpopo.

The role suits a candidate who values consistency and clear communication. The Thohoyandou operation runs on accurate work, steady relationships and a genuine respect for the people in the team.

Stakeholders for this position include line managers, peers across the legal and security jobs team and trusted external partners. Building those relationships early makes the next twelve months in Thohoyandou much easier.

Internal documentation, process notes and shared playbooks make it easier for the Loss Prevention Officer to step into the legal and security jobs workflow quickly. Institutional knowledge is well-organised, so people are not reinventing the wheel from one week to the next.

Your Future Here

This role can grow with you. Strong performers in the legal and security jobs team in Thohoyandou have moved into senior, supervisory and specialist positions, and that journey is supported through coaching, training and exposure to bigger projects.

Growth conversations happen at a regular cadence — not just at year-end — so the path forward stays current and realistic for every Thohoyandou team member.

Training is a mix of formal courses, structured on-the-job learning and exposure to broader projects, all geared at building practical skills.

In addition, internal mobility is encouraged. People who start in Thohoyandou have moved into roles in other branches, specialist functions and project teams across Limpopo.

Equal Opportunity

On top of that, the organisation supports a respectful workplace. Applications are welcome from suitably qualified candidates across Limpopo, and recruitment is intended to be fair and transparent.

Importantly, the hiring organisation’s applicable employment-equity and inclusion practices will be explained in the final vacancy details for Limpopo.

Inclusive hiring extends through onboarding and into how teams operate every day. Respectful, fair conduct is expected from every team member in Thohoyandou.

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 Your Day Looks Like

Your day is built on focus and detail. You work through matter files or post lists, review evidence or contracts and check that every required record is in place. Communication with site teams, attorneys, clients or SAPS is constant, and you keep your reports factual, precise and timely. When something out of the ordinary happens, you respond calmly and follow procedure, knowing that good documentation today protects the business tomorrow.

Equally, the rhythm rewards people who plan ahead but also pivot quickly when Limpopo operations throw up the unexpected.

Equally, the Thohoyandou 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.

No two days look exactly the same — and that variety is part of what keeps the role engaging for the right candidate in Thohoyandou.

Crucially, the role is intended to operate under the hiring organisation’s workplace conduct, health and safety policies in Limpopo.

Health, safety and well-being are taken seriously. Current policies and procedures are maintained, and the Thohoyandou site adheres to the standards expected of a responsible South African employer.

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.
