Are you a South African youth who’s looking for a chance to learn a real skill and earn money while you learn? Pepkor Lifestyle is opening a Warehouse and Logistics Operations Learnership for 2025/2026. This 12‑month program runs at the Rosslyn Central warehouse in Pretoria, Gauteng. It’s a full‑time job‑training course that gives you a nationally recognized certificate in warehouse work, logistics, and supply chain management. You’ll get paid each month, learn from experienced managers, and could land a permanent job after you finish. The application deadline is 30 November 2025, so if this sounds like you, don’t wait.
Why this learnership is a great start to a career
- Real work experience – You’ll spend your days on the floor, receiving goods, picking items for orders, packing packages, and sending them out. You’ll see how a warehouse keeps everything moving.
- Key skills for the future – We’ll cover inventory control, stock management, and the whole logistics process. You’ll learn how to keep track of items, follow safety rules, and follow company standards.
- Teamwork and time management – Working in a busy warehouse will teach you how to work well with others, keep track of tasks, and solve problems quickly.
- Mentorship – You’ll have senior staff who will guide you. They’ll share what works in real life, not just theory.
When you finish, you’ll have a qualification that can open doors in any logistics or supply‑chain company in South Africa and beyond.
What the learnership looks like
The training lasts a full year. Every month you’ll receive a stipend so you can cover living costs while you learn. The program is split into learning blocks that cover different topics:
