At Jonsson Workwear, technology is a critical enabler of our manufacturing capability. The systems and infrastructure that support our operations must be reliable, secure and aligned to the demands of a high-performing production environment.

To support the continued growth of our eSwatini facility, we’re looking for an experienced IT Support Lead to join our Technology Team.
