Where will the Nedbank YES Programme work experience take place?
The Nedbank quality work experience programme will be based at Nedbank’s various sites, branches and offices across the country, with some positions allowing for the possibility of working in terms of a hybrid or remote model.
Depending on the division, role and job requirement, Nedbank YES youth may be required to work weekdays and/or according to a shift schedule, which may include weekends and public holidays. This means that YES youth will need to be able to travel to and from the workplace.
Many of Nedbank’s 7080 YES candidates were placed in the bank’s business units, and with one of 33 YES implementation partners (IPs) across South Africa. In line with Nedbank’s green economy programme, some candidates were placed with the bank’s conservation partners. Here, they gained critical skills in areas like land restoration, ecotourism, disaster management, education and even running food gardens.

‘This commitment is especially relevant in line with our purpose of using our financial expertise to do good for individuals, families, businesses, and society. This purpose stems from Nedbank’s understanding that it, alongside its stakeholders, operate in an interdependent system, where a thriving economy, a well-functioning society, and a healthy environment are needed. Reducing youth unemployment in our country is central to this.
Our business strategies, societal-upliftment and development commitments are guided by this purpose,’ says Deborah Fuller, Nedbank Group executive: Human Resources.
More than two-thirds of the work opportunities created through the Nedbank-YES partnership have been taken up by women, with placements in provinces where the unemployment rate is higher than the official national average (33,9%), like Mpumalanga (36,1%), Limpopo (36,3%) and the Eastern Cape (42,8%). The salaries these young people receive are critical in uplifting the economies of communities across the country
