Kumba Iron Ore Vacancies & Opportunities

Mining

Kumba Iron Ore, part of the Anglo American group, mines iron ore in the Northern Cape at some of the largest open-pit operations in the world. Mining remains one of South Africa's best-paying industries for technical careers, and Kumba's entry routes reflect that: engineering learnerships, artisan apprenticeships (diesel mechanics, electricians, boilermakers and more), operator training and bursaries. Opportunities concentrate around Kathu and Postmasburg in the Northern Cape, and many programmes require medical fitness certification given the mining environment. Maths and science at school level open the most doors here.
