The upcoming retirement of Hermann Wenhold and Charlotte Mokoena marks the
conclusion of long and highly valued tenures on the executive team, and for Hermann
the end of more than 40 years with Sasol. We are grateful for their significant
contributions to Sasol’s journey and leadership over the years and they will be missed.
Going forward, Mining will be a dedicated GEC portfolio given the strategic focus
required in that area over the next few years. The other portfolio has been revised to
People, SHE, Risk and Corporate Affairs.

Sandile Siyaya, current Senior Vice President: Mining, will assume the role of
Executive Vice President: Mining on 1 September 2025. Sandile has 18 years of
Sasol-experience and a deep-rooted understanding of our mining activities combined
with the required strategic acumen and leadership skills. He is well placed to address
both our short- and long-term goals for Mining.
Thabile Makgala will join Sasol as Executive Vice President: People, SHE, Risk and
Corporate Affairs from 1 October 2025. Her strategic expertise and executive leadership
skills, combined with more than 20 years global experience operating in different mining
sectors, during which time she delivered record safety and productivity performance,
will stand her in good stead in her new role at Sasol.
A well-planned handover period between Hermann, Charlotte, Thabile and Sandile will
support a seamless leadership transition. This will allow the incoming leadership to
build on existing institutional insight with the transition of responsibilities.
