One of the main opportunities available is the Shop Assistant/Cashier position.

Some of these vacancies are available under brands such as CODE, SPCC and Legit.

Pepkor Speciality is also recruiting Sales Assistants for brands such as Swagga and Style.
A Sales Assistant plays an important role in helping customers and supporting the store’s sales goals.
For the advertised Swagga Sales Assistant positions, applicants generally need Grade 12 and between 1 and 2 years of experience in a similar environment.
The job may suit someone who enjoys fashion, meeting people and working in a retail environment.
The successful candidate may have a wide range of responsibilities during a normal working day.

The role requires someone who can stay focused even when the store becomes busy.
Retail employees spend a lot of time dealing with customers. Because of this, good customer service is one of the most important skills needed for these positions.
Customers may ask questions about sizes, prices, products or other store information. Employees should be able to listen carefully and provide helpful answers.
Being friendly does not mean that you have to know everything. What matters is being willing to assist, learn about the products and ask for help when necessary.
A good customer experience can also encourage shoppers to return to the store.

Not all of the advertised Pepkor Speciality vacancies have the same employment type.
Some positions are offered as permanent jobs, while others are contract opportunities.
For example, the Swagga Sales Assistant position in Secunda Central is advertised as a contract opportunity. Other Sales Assistant and Shop Assistant/Cashier positions may be permanent.
This is why applicants should not assume that every vacancy has the same contract terms.
Before applying, check the individual vacancy carefully to see whether it is permanent or fixed-term and whether the conditions suit your needs.

Some advertised positions have a closing date of 10 September 2026. Other vacancies close on 11 September 2026, while some close on 14 September 2026.
Because the dates are different, applicants should check the closing date of the exact position they want.
