DesleeMattex Manufacturing Processes Learnership – SLE261030-1

The DesleeMattex Manufacturing Learnership offers a route into textile production through a 12-month Manufacturing Processes programme. Based in Elsies River Industrial, Cape Town, it combines structured training with workplace learning. Applications close on 6 November 2026; the official reference is SLE261030-1.

What you will learn

The FP&M SETA funds this temporary learnership. Successful completion leads to an accredited NQF Level 2 Manufacturing Processes certificate. You will take part in theoretical lessons, practical training and workplace activities, complete assignments and projects, and attend the final external summative assessment at the scheduled venue and time.

DesleeMattex manufactures knitted and woven mattress fabrics. Its production environment uses air jet looms and circular knitting equipment. The company’s textile work combines manufacturing technology with fabric design, texture and performance. This background gives you a practical picture of the industry in which the advertised training takes place.

Who can apply

  • You must be a South African citizen with a valid South African ID.
  • You must be aged 18 to 35 and have completed Matric.
  • You need valid proof of a bank account and a SARS tax reference document.
  • You must be willing to complete aptitude assessments. Successful candidates undergo a medical examination and drug screening.
  • You should have an interest in manufacturing and be willing to learn.

Conditions to consider

Learners receive a weekly stipend, although the advert does not specify its value. Shift work is required when needed. Consider your transport arrangements and availability before applying, because attending the workplace and training is part of the commitment.

You will need to follow company procedures and workplace standards throughout the programme. Reliability matters alongside classroom participation: assessments, practical work and assigned projects all contribute to completing the learning requirements. The opportunity is a learnership, and the advert does not promise a permanent job after completion.

How to apply for the DesleeMattex Manufacturing Learnership

Open the official Sleep Group vacancy page, confirm reference SLE261030-1 and select Apply. Follow the recruitment portal’s prompts to complete your application.

Prepare your supporting documents before starting. The employer requires certified documents no older than three months when you are placed into the programme. Check certification dates against that placement requirement, rather than assuming an older certified copy will be accepted. Make sure your ID, education information, bank confirmation and tax reference are clear and consistent. Submit before the closing deadline and retain any application confirmation the portal provides.
