Department Of Public Enterprises Vacancies 2022/2023

OUR HISTORY

Department Of Public Enterprises Vacancies | The Office of Public Enterprises (OPE) was established in 1994 to champion and direct the restructuring of State-Owned Companies (SOCs) and to ensure their optimal economic and developmental impact. A Cabinet decision was taken in 1999 to accelerate the restructuring of State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs) and the OPE was upgraded and re-designated as the Department of Public Enterprises (DPE) – a National Government Department.

The DPE is the shareholder representative for Government and is mandated by the Executive to oversee a number of SOCs that operate in core sectors of the economy like mining, Defence, Energy, Logistics, and others. The DPE is the primary interface between Government and the SOCs concerned and, in addition to oversight, provides input to the formulation of policy, legislation, and regulation.

OUR VISION

To create an enabling environment in which SOCs add real economic value by focussing on operational excellence, commercial viability and fiscal prudence. This will drive developmental objectives, industrialization, job creation, and skills development.

OUR MISSION

To provide clear strategic direction and oversight to the Department’s SOCs, seeking to ensure that:

They are financially sustainable, adequately funded, and operationally robust;
Their operating models keep pace with global development and innovation;
They provide reliable, high-quality, and cost-effective services and infrastructure to industry and our citizens;
They secure investment and funding for strategic industrial development; and
They align with national developmental objectives.
