Where to find and apply safely
Apply only through the original Careers24 listing, using the Apply button on this page, which links directly to the advert. Be wary of anyone who asks for a fee to secure a job or who contacts you outside the official listing: genuine employers do not charge applicants for placement.

Practical tips
Lead with your certificates and your underground production experience: state your Mine Overseer’s Certificate of Competence and Blasting Certificate clearly, along with your years of underground experience and any chrome mining exposure. Underground safety roles are judged on judgement and record-keeping, so give concrete examples of inspections, corrective actions and reporting you have handled. Make sure your CV is up to date and that your references are contactable.
