About Harambee

Harambee is a Youth Employment Accelerator, dedicated to solving one of South Africa's most pressing social challenges—youth unemployment. We do this through innovation, data, and purpose-driven technology, partnering with key stakeholders such as The Presidency of South Africa, Business Unity South Africa, and the Youth Employment Service (YES).

  • Champion Harambee's culture, inclusion, and diversity through high-impact engagement initiatives and change management interventions.
  • Design and deliver workshops, interventions, and campaigns that promote the Harambee way of working.
  • Lead the administration and analysis of employee engagement surveys, using data to drive continuous improvement.
  • Partner with leaders, change champions, and cross-functional teams to enhance employee experience and culture.
  • Oversee engagement resources and systems, including HRIS/Learning Management Systems.
  • Lead, coach, and develop trainers/facilitators, fostering a culture of accountability, collaboration, and high performance.
  • Collaborate with the strategic communications team to deliver impactful employee communications and engagement campaigns.
  • Ensure compliance with employment laws and Harambee policies.

What We're Looking For

  • Bachelor's degree in HR, Business, or a related field.
  • Minimum 5 years' experience in HR, with at least 3 years focusing on employee engagement and facilitation.
  • Proven experience in leading engagement initiatives and managing teams.
  • Strong knowledge of HRIS or employee engagement platforms.
  • Competencies in situational awareness, organisational and influential leadership, effective communication, accountability, and partnership building.

Why Join Harambee?

At Harambee, we believe in inclusion, diversity, and collaboration. We work together to solve one of the most pressing social challenges—youth unemployment—through innovation, data, and purpose-driven technology. You'll be part of a team that's not only building cutting-edge solutions but also making a real impact in the lives of millions. We value openness, teamwork, and continuous learning, and we're proud to be an organisation where people come to grow, contribute, and belong.

We are committed to creating an inclusive and accessible workplace.
