Job board: South Africa hires for its big projects

August 28, 2025

From the newsletter

This week’s job board features 134 jobs in South Africa alone. Most of these are technical, project-oriented roles such as project managers, construction leads, engineers and operations managers. Energy firms appear to be hiring in tandem with the country's project pipelines and technology adoption, including energy storage and wind.

  • The rest of Africa is focused on off-grid solutions. PAYGO pioneer M-KOPA is hiring for 15 roles in four countries this week, while Sun King continues to hire in multiple regions across the continent from last week. 

  • At the same time, hiring for sales is particularly high this week. The trend shows that energy companies are looking to expand their client base and connect with consumers in different markets on the continent.
