This helps Eskom’s Executive Committee, Board Tender Committees, and other decision-makers make smart choices. Your work will also support the company’s legal and financial responsibilities.

You will advise procurement teams on how to prepare their reports and submissions correctly. This includes checking for risks, inconsistencies, and missing details. You will also manage and improve Eskom’s procurement assurance model, which helps prevent problems before they happen.

Experience in procurement, governance, compliance, or commercial roles is essential, especially with a focus on supply chain risk and training.

You should be skilled in using Microsoft Office and ERP systems like SAP. Knowledge of Eskom’s policies, government regulations (like those from National Treasury and SARS), and procurement best practices is a must. Strong leadership, communication, and problem-solving skills are also important.

What you will get:
This is a permanent job with a salary that matches market rates. Eskom offers a stable career in the energy sector, with opportunities to grow and develop your skills. The role is based on-site in Sunninghill, Gauteng.
