2025 Gauteng NQF Level 4 Management Learnership – Dept. of Employment & Training – Start Your Career
Motus is looking for suitable young people to apply for their NQF Level 4 Generic Management Learnership in Gauteng. The closing date for applications is 31 August 2026 (check the link to be sure you don’t miss it).
What is a learnership, and why should you care?
A learnership is a paid apprenticeship that mixes on‑the‑job training with formal classroom learning. For a beginner, it gives you real work experience, a recognised qualification and a paycheck all at once. You’ll be learning the fundamentals of business management while working in a real office, getting a chance to network with professionals and maybe even snag a permanent role at the end.
Day‑to‑day what you’ll be doing
- Morning briefings – review the day’s goals and team targets.
- Shadow senior managers – observe meetings, budget reviews, and project planning.
- Hands‑on tasks – help with data entry, report writing, and simple project coordination.
- Study time – attend 10–15 hours of classroom or online modules on leadership, communication, and basic finance.
- Feedback loops – weekly check‑ins with your mentor to track progress and set next steps.
Why this is great for you
- Earn while you learn – the stipend starts at R4,500 a month and can grow with performance.
- Certification – you’ll graduate with an NQF Level 4 qualification that employers recognise.
- Career jump‑start – many past learners have moved into permanent roles with Motus or other firms in Gauteng.
- Location perks – based in Johannesburg, you’ll be close to the city’s business hub, making it easier to explore part‑time gigs or study opportunities.
Who can apply?
- Age – 18 + (or 17 with parental consent).
- Education – Completed or currently doing a Grade 12, National Diploma, or equivalent.
- Skills – Basic computer literacy, good communication skills, and a willingness to learn.
- Residency – Must be a South African citizen or permanent resident.
Documents you’ll need
- Updated CV (no fancy graphics, just the facts).
- Copy of your ID or passport.
- Proof of your most recent qualification (grade book, certificate, or transcript).
- 1‑page motivation letter (why you want this learnership).
How to apply – step‑by‑step
- Visit the application page – Apply right here before it closes.
- Create an account – If you don’t have one, register on the platform.
- Fill out the form – Upload your CV, ID, qualification proof, and motivation letter.
- Confirm your details – Double‑check your email and phone number.
- Submit – Once you hit “Send”, you’ll receive a confirmation email.
Tips to stand out
- Show real enthusiasm – mention a project or an experience that sparked your interest in management.
- Quantify achievements – “led a school club that grew from 10 to 40 members” beats “was a team member.”
- Keep it short – a clear, concise motivation letter (200–250 words) is easier to read.
- Ask a friend to proofread – a second pair of eyes catches typos before you hit submit.
After you apply
- If you’re shortlisted, you’ll have a short interview – just a chat about what you hope to learn and how you think a management role fits your future plans.
- If you’re accepted, you’ll start the learnership in September 2026 and finish by August 2027, ready to step into a real role.
If you’re in Joburg, Gauteng, or anywhere in SA and want a paid way to gain management skills, this learnership could be the perfect launchpad. Don’t wait—click the link, get your papers ready, and apply today.
