What’s the job? Bophelong Construction is looking for students who need work‑based learning to finish their studies. The role is a 3‑month Work Integrated Learning (WIL) placement that lets you see what a real civil engineering company does every day. You can join the team as a Procurement Learner or a Receptionist Learner.
Apply by February 13, 2026. The work will be in South Africa. If you want to know more about the company, visit Bophelong Construction for background.
Why This Opportunity Matters
Most university and college programmes give you theory, but you still have to learn how to work in a real office or on a site. The WIL programme gives you that chance. You’ll spend a quarter of a year getting hands‑on training under the guidance of experienced staff. That experience makes it easier to finish your course and helps you find a job after graduation.
About Bophelong Construction
Founded in 1984, Bophelong Construction has built roads, moved tons of earth, and helped grow South Africa’s infrastructure. The company is known for high quality work, fair hiring practices, and a solid reputation in the civil engineering field. Over 40 years of experience mean you’ll be learning from people who know how to get a job done.
What the 2026 WIL Programme Looks Like
- Length: 3 months, full‑time contract.
- Places to work: Procurement Learner and Receptionist Learner.
- Location: Head Office in South Africa.
- Deadline: 13 February 2026.
During the three months, you’ll work next to seasoned professionals. They’ll show you the ropes and give you real tasks to handle, so you can see how a civil engineering company runs day to day.
Who Should Apply?
If you’re studying one of these subjects, this might be the perfect fit for you:
- Business Management
- Office Management
- Any Administrative programme (like secretarial work or general office support)
Even if you’re not sure where your studies will take you, gaining practical skills in a fast‑paced environment can open doors for you later on.

Before you send in your application, make sure you meet these basics:
- You’re a student who still has to do WIL or in‑service training to finish a qualification.
- You’ve completed the required theoretical work for levels N4 to N6 if you’re in a NATED programme.
- You can send a letter from your TVET college or university confirming that you need this training.
- You’re ready to work in a practical setting that moves fast and keeps you busy.
- Your current grades average at least 60%.
