Water in Africa is precious. At every single stage of the water cycle, trained people are needed to look after it, store it, make sure it is clean enough to use, or to help people and industries all over the country to have access to it.
The world of water offers many different job opportunities for school leavers or people who have diplomas, certificates or degrees. South Africa is critically short of skilled staff at all levels in the world of water. The jobs are at all educational levels and in every type of environment across the country - in cities, in nature reserves, or in isolated villages.
Each part of the water industry contributes to making sure that adequate water is available in homes, in industry and in agriculture.
Employers include government, research institutions, water utilities, industry, consultancies, non-government organisations and private business.
