Apply Now: Fidelity Services Group 2026 Learnership for New Graduates & Unemployed Youth
Fidelity Services Group is looking for suitable young people to apply for their Learnership Programme opportunities. The closing date for applications is 13 March 2026.
If you’re a 15‑25‑year‑old living in Joburg, Gauteng, or around SA, and you want to start a real career without a fancy degree, this 24‑month learnership in the private security and services sector could be just what you need. You’ll get paid (stipend details aren’t listed, but many learnerships include a monthly allowance), hands‑on work experience, and a chance to build a CV that looks like more than just school years.
What you’ll do day‑to‑day
- Assist in office administration – filing, scheduling, and basic bookkeeping
- Help coordinate security patrols and client visits
- Learn to use professional software and communication tools
- Shadow senior staff and pick up workplace etiquette in real time
- Work in teams and report progress to managers
This is great for beginners, fresh matric graduates, or anyone who’s never worked a formal job before but wants to see what it’s like to be in a professional environment.
Who should apply?
- South African citizens aged 18‑35
- Unemployed or recently finished high school (matric only required)
- Anyone who can speak English well and has basic organisational skills
- Motivated people who can work on their own and follow instructions
- Those who can handle a bit of pressure and are eager to learn
There’s a criminal background check, so keep that in mind when you’re putting together your documents.
Locations and perks
Gauteng campuses: Roodepoort, Florida, Helderkruin, Midrand, and nearby areas. Working close to you means shorter commutes and a chance to network locally. You’ll also get exposure to a range of security services, which can open doors to other roles in the industry.
What you’ll gain
By the end of the 24 months, you’ll have:
- Professional workplace etiquette
- Strong communication and reporting skills
- Team collaboration experience
- Time‑management habits
- Document handling and record‑keeping abilities
- Confidence and a clear career direction
These skills make you a better candidate for jobs in private firms, government, customer service, and beyond.
