About us
Northam Platinum Holdings Limited (Northam Holdings or the group) is an independent, empowered, integrated producer of Platinum Group Metals (PGMs) that operates three wholly-owned mines located in the Bushveld Complex of South Africa, Zondereinde, Booysendal and Eland. Northam Platinum Limited (Northam) has been listed on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE) since 1987 with the share code NHM. This has been subsequently replaced with NPH following the listing of Northam Holdings in a share for share exchange. Our three main products mined are platinum, palladium and rhodium and are consumed by industries such as motor manufacturing, jewellery and other industrial sectors. Our activities are integrated throughout the full value stream, from underground mining, through concentrating, smelting and base metal removal to final saleable metal. Precious metal refining is outsourced. Since inception, Northam’s precious metals were refined by Heraeus Deutschland GmbH & Co KG (Heraeus) in Germany, however with the increase in our production base and refining capacity, the group has recently contracted Johnson Matthey PLC as a second precious metal refiner. The growth of our business ensures meaningful employment for our people. We create opportunities for training and skills development both for employees and the communities where we operate. At Northam, we believe in the positive impact of mining not only for our investors but for our communities, our environment and our people.

Job fraud is a serious issue where fraudsters pretend to be legitimate employers or recruiters, often advertising fake jobs on social media or via SMS/WhatsApp. These scams can trick you into believing the jobs are real by using legitimate job details but with the fraudster’s contact information. They might even ask you to pay a fee upfront for training or background checks, and the personal details you provide can lead to identity theft. At Northam, we want to ensure you know how to recognize our genuine application process: 1. All job offers are posted on our official Careers platform: https://northam.careers/ 2. We create a LinkedIn post for each job, with only the operation name, job title, and background photo changing. 3. Successful applicants will be contacted by a Northam employee with an email ending in .norplats.co.za. Stay vigilant and protect your personal information. If in doubt, always check our official channels. #JobFraudAwareness #CareForOurCommunities #NorthamCareers

At all of Northam’s operations, it’s our people who make our business successful. Since implementing our growth strategy, we've created over 12,000 direct, meaningful, and sustainable jobs in some of the country's least economically developed areas, doubling our workforce despite a shrinking mining sector and struggling economy. As of the end of the interim period, our total workforce, including contractors, stands at 21,539 employees, reflecting a minor reduction from June 30, 2023, due to project completions. Despite current depressed commodity prices, we're proud to have promoted 421 employees, with 92% of these promotions awarded to women. We place great importance on creating employment opportunities for women in mining and celebrate their critical contributions. Currently, 19% of our workforce and 17% of our management team are women. Read our full report at https://bit.ly/3L8wtBa #OurPeopleMakeUs #CreatingValue #EmpowerOurPeople
