Opportunity at BMW is open now, and you can start building a tech career with a global brand. Acting quickly could give you a spot in their IT Hub in Menlyn.
What the opportunity is
BMW is looking for candidates in two tracks:
- IT track – includes Information Technology, Computer Science, Software Development, Web and Front‑End Development, IT Operations, Infrastructure, Security and related studies.
- Data Science & Analytics track – includes Data Science, Data Analytics, Business Analytics, Statistics, Mathematics and related analytical programmes.
Who can apply
You need a recognised qualification in one of the fields above.
Having Java, SAP or ABAP certifications helps, but they are not mandatory for every role.

- Hands‑on work with modern programming, software, database and analytical tools.
- Potential to grow into specialised IT or data‑analytics positions.

- Upload your CV and any relevant certificates (Java, SAP, ABAP, etc.).
- Complete the short online questionnaire and submit before the deadline.
Tips to improve your chances
- Use the ATS CV Assistant to match your wording with the job description.
- Research occupational trends on the National Skills Intelligence Explorer – but remember it shows trends, not current openings.
- Proofread carefully; simple, error‑free language scores higher with recruiters.
- Highlight any practical projects, internships or learnerships you have completed.
