Zurel Bros SA Millwright & Fitting Apprenticeships – Deadline 13 Oct 2026

South African technicians, act now – the Zurel Bros SA Millwright and Fitting apprenticeships close on 13 October 2026, and they could be your fast‑track into skilled artisan work.

What the opportunity is

Zurel Bros SA is offering two workplace‑based apprenticeship programmes for 2026: one for Millwrights and one for Fitters. The training will take place at the company’s facility in Polokwane, Limpopo.

Who can apply

  • Must hold a relevant National Certificate Vocational (NCV) Level 4–7 or comparable technical subjects.
  • Need an up‑to‑date curriculum vitae.
  • Must attach the actual qualification certificates – a Statement of Results will not be accepted.
  • There are no published age limits, stipend amounts or programme length.

What you gain

  • Hands‑on experience with mechanical and/or electrical plant, depending on the trade you choose.
  • Development of fault‑finding, maintenance and equipment‑repair skills in a real‑world setting.
  • An entry point into the engineering sector that can lead to further career growth.

How to apply – step by step

  1. Update your CV so it highlights any workshop practice, projects or technical training.
  2. Gather the original certificates that show the subjects you have completed.
  3. Compose an email to applications@zurel.co.za. Attach your CV and certificates.
  4. Use the exact subject line required:
    • “Millwright” if you are applying for the Millwright apprenticeship.
    • “Fitting” if you are applying for the Fitting apprenticeship.
  5. Send the email before the deadline on 13 October 2026.

Tips to improve your chances

  • Check that the subjects listed on your certificates match the trade – Millwrights need a mix of mechanical + electrical studies, Fitters need primarily mechanical subjects.
  • Do not send a Statement of Results. If you only have that at the moment, request the official certificate from your college before applying.
  • Keep your email subject exact – vague titles like “Application” may be ignored.
  • Proofread your CV for spelling and ensure your contact details are current.

Final thoughts

The Zurel Bros SA 2026 apprenticeships give technically qualified candidates a chance to start a career as a Millwright or Fitting artisan. Verify that your certificates list the right subjects, attach them (not a Statement of Results), write a clear CV, and email applications@zurel.co.za with the correct subject before 13 October 2026. Good luck on your path to skilled work!
