At Capitec, we believe banking should be simple - and so should building great teams. That’s where you come in. We’re looking for a Strategic People Partner who doesn’t just support the business but helps shape it. Someone who can confidently take a seat at the table, challenge thinking, and partner with leaders to build teams that truly move the needle. Key Responsibilities What You’ll Be Doing Partner with senior leaders to co-create and deliver people strategies aligned to real business priorities. Operate as a thought partner to executives, connecting business strategy, people priorities, and organisational choices to drive long-term impact. Shape organisation and workforce design to enable scale, agility, and effective ways of working. Be a trusted advisor - solving complex people challenges and shaping solutions that stick. Lead and support enterprise-wide strategic initiatives in partnership with Centres of Excellence. Guide leaders across the talent lifecycle, including talent acquisition, performance, succession, and workforce planning. Understand the impact of emerging technologies, including AI, and proactively shape workforce capability, roles, and ways of working as the business evolves. Drive DEI and employee experience as part of broader business transformation (not standalone initiatives). How You Will Create Impact Drive end-to-end change management - from diagnosing the need for change to embedding and sustaining it. Design and evolve future-fit organisational structures that enable agility, scalability, and performance. Lead organisation design conversations, including spans, layers, capabilities, and ways of working. Build change capability in leaders, enabling them to lead transformation confidently. Use people data, organisational diagnostics, and external trends to proactively shape workforce strategy. Embed new ways of working (agile, digital-first, customer-centric teams). Identify capability gaps and influence upskilling and reskilling strategies for the future. Act as a connector across the business, breaking silos to enable integrated people solutions. Requirements What You Bring You’re not just experienced - you’re strategically wired and impact-driven. You bring 8+ years’ experience as a Strategic HR / People Partner, with a track record of delivering real outcomes. You’ve partnered with leaders at an executive senior, strategic level, shaping direction - not just supporting it. You understand business strategy and how people enable it (beyond HR frameworks). You’ve led or supported change, restructuring, and organisational design in complex environments. You’re confident challenging thinking and influencing stakeholders, with credibility and care. You balance strong people intuition with data-driven decision-making. The Foundation: A relevant tertiary qualification in Human Resources, Commerce, or Industrial / Organisational Psychology. Ideally, a postgraduate qualification and HPCSA registration. Strong HR generalist capability, with sound knowledge of governance, systems, and labour legislation. The Edge: You’re an energy-giver - someone deeply connected to the business, who can read the room, sense what’s needed, and move seamlessly between strategic thinking and hands-on execution to drive meaningful, lasting impact. Remuneration & Benefits Why You’ll Love It Here Work closely with leaders who value your insight and expertise. Be considered for broader opportunities as the organisation evolves. Thrive in a culture that values collaboration, innovation, and continuous growth. Make a tangible impact on both business performance and employee wellbeing. The Bottom Line If you’re ready to move from supporting the business to shaping it - this is your moment. 👉 Apply now and let’s build something meaningful together. Capitec is committed to diversity, applications to this position will strictly be considered in support of our employment equity goals.
