Work-Force
Bring your skills as a Training Coordinator to Kathu and join a team that moves fast. This Northern Cape role is one to watch.
The Role
This Training Coordinator role sits within the hr jobs function in Kathu. It offers a defined scope, clear measures of success, and the support of an experienced team across Northern Cape.
The role suits a candidate who values consistency and clear communication. The Kathu operation runs on accurate work, steady relationships and a genuine respect for the people in the team.
Internal documentation, process notes and shared playbooks make it easier for the Training Coordinator 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.
What Your Day Looks Like
Your day is people-shaped from the moment you log in. You move between recruitment screens, manager calls, payroll queries and the occasional sensitive conversation that needs your full attention. Mid-morning you might be running an onboarding session for new starters, and by the afternoon you’re back at your desk preparing EE or B-BBEE reports. Through it all, you balance compliance with care, making sure that policies are followed and people are heard.
Notably, the Kathu 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 Kathu.
Meet the Team
You will join a tight-knit, collaborative team that knows the hr jobs side of the business inside out. The Kathu group is a healthy mix of experienced operators and newer joiners, all of whom share a strong commitment to delivery and to one another.
Line management is hands-on without being heavy. Expect regular one-to-ones, honest feedback and the support needed to do good work consistently.
Crucially, the team mix in Kathu reflects a balance of experienced operators and emerging talent, with deliberate space for diverse voices and backgrounds.
Your Future Here
Practically speaking, this role can grow with you. Strong performers in the hr jobs team in Kathu have moved into senior, supervisory and specialist positions, and that journey is supported through coaching, training and exposure to bigger projects.
Equally, internal mobility is encouraged. People who start in Kathu have moved into roles in other branches, specialist functions and project teams across Northern Cape.
Training is a mix of formal courses, structured on-the-job learning and exposure to broader projects, all geared at building practical skills.
