Valterra Platinum invites suitably qualified applicants to apply for their Pump Attendant Vacancies (X6 Posts). The closing date for applications is 16 December 2025. If you are looking for a chance to join a company that values hard work, safety, and personal growth, this opportunity in Mokopane, Limpopo could be the start of something meaningful. This fixed-term role gives you the chance to work with equipment that keeps mining operations running, while also learning new skills in a supportive engineering environment.
Working as a Pump Attendant might sound simple at first, but it plays a big part in keeping a mine safe and operating smoothly. Pumps move water away from working areas, and without them, operations would stop. Valterra Platinum is offering a chance to join a team that focuses on excellence, safety, and teamwork. If you enjoy hands-on work, don’t mind getting a bit dirty, and want a job where your effort matters every day, this is a powerful opportunity.
Valterra Platinum is known for investing in its people. They believe in fairness, diversity, and creating a workplace where everyone feels respected. This means you’re not just doing a job — you’re becoming part of a community that values both your skills and your character.
As a Pump Attendant, your main responsibility is to make sure the dewatering pumps on-site are always running properly. These pumps help remove water from mining areas so that operations can continue safely and smoothly.
You will keep an eye on the pumps throughout the day to make sure they don’t stop or show signs of problems. Continuous monitoring helps prevent breakdowns, flooding, and downtime.
Part of your job is inspecting hoses, pipes, valves, and other connections. You’ll look for leaks, wear, cracks, or anything that seems unusual. If something needs attention, you report it right away to the maintenance team.
Whenever you see something unsafe or faulty — like stoppages, leaks, noises, or even blocked pipes — you must report it immediately. This fast reporting helps avoid bigger problems.
You may help clear blockages, remove debris, or support the team during pump repairs. Sometimes you’ll assist with installing pumps or pipes in new areas.
Pumps have moving parts that need lubrication. You’ll check lubricant levels and refill them when needed. This helps the pump last longer and run better.
Keeping the pump station clean is important. Dirt, tools lying around, and clutter can cause accidents. A clean working area also helps you spot problems faster.
To apply, you need:
While some experience is not mandatory, it is highly advantageous if you have:
These skills show that you understand how pumps work and how to keep them running safely.
