In a statement on Monday, the utility said the departure is of mutual agreement.


His last day with Eskom will be 31 July.


Oberholzer retired at the end of April this year but stayed on as a contractor.


He was on a fixed-term contract to provide support to the Koeberg Nuclear Power Station long-term operation and Kusile Power Station projects.


"Eskom expresses gratitude to Mr Jan Oberholzer for his dedicated service, expertise and valuable contributions during his tenure. We wish him well in his future endeavours," Eskom said. 


His departure follows that of Andre de Ruyter, who left as CEO earlier this year.


Eskom is still looking for a new CEO to succeed De Ruyter.
