The Facilities Intern opportunity is part of Momentum Group’s Group Facilities Management function.

According to the current official recruitment listing, the position is based in Centurion, Gauteng and is a temporary role within the Operations job family.

3. Independent Financial Adviser Graduate Programme – Durban

The Durban opportunity is offered through Momentum Distribution Services (MDS) in partnership with Outlook Financial Services.

It is a structured three-year graduate programme designed to develop participants towards a career in financial advice. The official listing identifies the position as a graduate role in Durban, KwaZulu-Natal.

4. Independent Financial Adviser Graduate Programme – Randburg

A similar IFA graduate opportunity is available in Randburg, Gauteng, through MSP Consultants in partnership with Momentum Distribution Services.

The official reference number is MMH260817-10.

Like the Durban programme, this is a structured three-year pathway covering administrative support, paraplanning and progression towards a junior financial adviser role under supervision.

• Year 3: R18,000 per month

Closing date

The official Momentum listing currently shows 24 August 2026 as the closing date.

Who Can Apply?

Eligibility depends on the specific Momentum opportunity.

Graduates with relevant degrees may find the Investment and IFA graduate opportunities more suitable, while people with qualifications in engineering, facilities management, project management or the built environment may be better aligned with the Facilities Intern position.

The IFA programmes are particularly relevant to graduates who want to build a career in financial advice. Importantly, the official listings state that previous industry experience is not required for those graduate programmes.

Applicants should not assume that meeting the general description of a “graduate” is enough. The qualification and location requirements for each vacancy should be checked separately.

Important Application Requirements

Before applying, applicants should prepare accurate information about their:

• Identity and contact details
• Academic qualifications
• Relevant work or practical experience
• Current residential location
• CV and employment history

For the Facilities Intern, Momentum specifically lists proficiency in Microsoft Office and strong organisational and administrative abilities among the requirements.

For the IFA graduate programmes, applicants should pay particular attention to the required BCom qualification and the requirement to reside in the placement region or surrounding areas.

The supplied third-party article mentions general documents such as a CV, matric certificate and ID, but because document requirements can differ between Momentum vacancies, applicants should follow the requirements displayed on the individual official application page rather than relying on a generic checklist.

How to Apply

Applications should be made through the official Momentum recruitment platform and through the specific vacancy associated with the position you want.

Step 1: Choose the correct opportunity

Check the job title, location, qualification and closing date before starting your application.

Step 2: Check the reference number

For example, the official Randburg IFA programme uses reference MMH260817-10.

Step 3: Read the official vacancy

Review the complete requirements on the employer’s recruitment page rather than relying only on a reposted job advertisement.

Step 4: Prepare your information

Have your CV and academic information available before completing the online application.

Step 5: Complete the online application

Follow the instructions on Momentum’s recruitment platform and provide truthful, accurate information.

Step 6: Review before submitting

Check your contact information, qualification details, location and uploaded documents before submitting.

What About the Johannesburg Learnership?

The supplied article includes a Learnership Programme in Johannesburg, but this should not be advertised as currently open.

Momentum’s official recruitment listing for the Johannesburg opportunity gives a closing date of 21 August 2026. As today’s date is 22 August 2026, that deadline has passed.

The official listing describes it as a 12-month learnership starting in October 2026, aimed at unemployed youth and offering the opportunity to work towards a Wealth Management NQF Level 4 qualification.

For an evergreen jobs website, I would either remove this vacancy from the main “open opportunities” list or clearly label it Closed.

Before You Apply

A few simple checks can prevent avoidable application problems:

1. Use the employer’s recruitment website. Do not rely solely on an application button on a third-party jobs website.
2. Check the reference number. This helps ensure that you are applying for the correct position.
3. Check the location. The IFA opportunities have location-specific requirements.
4. Read the current closing date. Dates can change between reposts and employer recruitment systems.
5. Do not exaggerate your qualifications. Enter your academic information exactly as it appears on your official records.
6. Keep your CV consistent. Your qualification dates and employment information should match what you enter on the application form.
7. Do not pay anyone to apply. A legitimate employer should not require payment in exchange for consideration for a job or graduate programme.

Momentum maintains an official careers section for current vacancies and career opportunities.

Important Notice

Job seekers should treat the official Momentum recruitment listing as the final authority if information on a third-party website differs from the employer’s current vacancy.

Closing dates are particularly important. At the time of checking:

• The Johannesburg learnership had closed on 21 August 2026.
• The Durban IFA programme closes on 23 August 2026.
• The Randburg IFA programme closes on 24 August 2026.
• The Facilities Intern listing closes on 30 September 2026 according to Momentum’s current recruitment page.

Applicants should therefore avoid relying on countdowns or closing dates copied from other websites.

Official Source

The primary source for the opportunities is the Momentum Group recruitment platform, supported by Momentum’s official careers website. The individual vacancy pages contain the most current position-specific requirements and closing dates.

Conclusion

These opportunities cover several different entry points into the financial-services sector, from facilities and investment-related internships to a structured three-year financial-adviser pathway. The most important step is to match your qualification and location to the specific vacancy, then apply through the employer’s current recruitment page before its stated deadline.

For applicants considering the IFA graduate programmes, the three-year structure is particularly worth examining because it combines workplace experience with progressive responsibilities and professional development.
