Listing live now. Role: Pre-Primary Teacher. Location: Harrismith, Free State. The team is hiring and seeks a candidate who can step in and deliver from week one.
The Role
The organisation is investing in its Harrismith operation, and this Pre-Primary Teacher position reflects that commitment. The successful candidate will work across the teaching jobs function and contribute to the wider Free State business.
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 Harrismith team.
Tools, systems and information are there to support the role rather than slow it down. The company continues to invest in the technology that backs its Harrismith teams, and the new Pre-Primary Teacher will feel that from the first week.
Stakeholders for this position include line managers, peers across the teaching jobs team and trusted external partners. Building those relationships early makes the next twelve months in Harrismith much easier.
