Early starts, clear routines and a steady contract at an university campus in Polokwane. Bring a calm head on busy days and you'll be fine.

The work is in Polokwane, Limpopo, so you'll need a reliable way to get there every day. Hours are mostly Monday to Friday, with the odd Saturday in busy months.
