Job Description
Shape South Africa's green hydrogen and sustainability future as a Technical Advisor focusing on Environment and Sustainability, reporting to the Component Leader – H2.SA II/BVC, based in Hatfield, Pretoria, with the role secured until 31 December 2030.
Why This Role Matters
South Africa is uniquely positioned to become a global leader in the green hydrogen (GH2) economy and its derivatives (Power-to-X, PtX). With abundant renewable resources and well-established industrial infrastructure, the country can accelerate decarbonisation, attract major international investment and build new industries that deliver a just and inclusive transition.
The country is also central to the global supply of critical raw materials (CRM) such as platinum, manganese, vanadium, chromium and nickel – vital for clean technologies, batteries and digitalisation. Combined with its skilled workforce and established mining sector, South Africa can build a competitive CRM and battery value chain, strengthening both domestic industry and regional leadership.
Yet challenges remain: policy uncertainty, limited capacity, coordination gaps and the insufficient integration of environmental, social and governance (ESG) standards. To unlock the full potential for sustainable growth, job creation and industrial transformation, South Africa needs strong frameworks, informed planning and inclusive approaches.
On behalf of the European Union and the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), and in close cooperation with the South African government, GIZ is implementing the H2.SA II/BVC Programme to support the development of dynamic green hydrogen and CRM value chains.
The programme includes five components:
- Strategy, policy & regulatory framework
- Private sector cooperation
- Capacity building, research & innovation
- Sustainability & just transition
- Battery value chains
This role sits within Component 4 – Sustainability and Just Transition, focusing on the environmental and social dimensions of a hydrogen-based economy. You will help ensure that large-scale renewable projects are developed responsibly, socially inclusive and widely accepted – laying the foundation for a sustainable energy future.
What You Will Do
As Technical Advisor, you will:
- Support the implementation of H2.SA with a focus on scaling a sustainable and gender-responsive green hydrogen economy
- Develop and manage activities that strengthen environmental sustainability in the GH2 and PtX sectors
- Conceptualise and oversee inputs, contracts, workshops and stakeholder engagements to deliver high-quality results
- Prepare and present reports, concepts, terms of reference and knowledge products linked to workstream 4
- Provide sustainability expertise across programme workstreams, acting as the focal point for environmental advice
- Support project coordination, operational planning, monitoring & evaluation and knowledge management
- Work under the guidance of the Component Lead, collaborating closely with advisors and stakeholders across the programme
What You Need to Succeed
Qualifications
- Master's degree in Environmental Sciences, Environmental Management, Environmental Engineering, Development Studies or a related field
Professional Experience
- At least 5 years' experience in environmental science, impact analysis, energy transition, renewable energy, sustainability or socioeconomic development
- Knowledge of South Africa's environmental policy framework and direct experience with environmental impact assessments and permitting processes
- Exposure to the South African mining, oil & gas, energy or water sectors, or related policy frameworks
- Strong interest in green hydrogen, PtX and energy transition, with a commitment to developing technical expertise
- Experience in project and process management, as well as stakeholder engagement
- Proven ability to work both independently and in multicultural teams, with strong organisational skills
- Excellent professional communication and writing skills in English
Why Join GIZ
- Contribute to South Africa's just energy transition at the intersection of environment, economy and society
- Be part of an international organisation recognised for diversity, respect and equal opportunities
- Work in a global network that values inclusion and gender equality
- Benefit from a supportive work environment committed to professional growth and impact
Application Process
To apply, please submit:
- A cover letter (maximum 1 page) outlining why you are the preferred candidate and the value you will bring to H2.SA
- A detailed CV (maximum 3 pages), indicating your nationality
- Proof of eligibility to work in South Africa (copy of SA ID)
Closing date: 13 October 2025
Please note:
- Applications without a motivation letter or CVs longer than 3 pages will not be considered
- Only shortlisted candidates will be contacted and may be required to complete an assignment prior to interview
- Applications from women, historically marginalised groups and persons with disabilities are strongly encouraged
