Job Description

Numbers, names and codes cross your screen all day at this municipal contract project in Mthatha. You don't need to be the loudest person in the room, just the one others can count on.

The site is in Mthatha; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying. Start is planned for the beginning of next month.

The work, day to day

  • Shred and dispose of documents under the retention policy.
  • Match proofs of delivery to invoices and flag shortages.
  • Check every captured record against the source document for errors.
  • Scan and index files so they can be found by reference number.
  • Prepare simple Excel reports on volumes and backlogs.
  • Enter sales orders on SAP or Sage and print picking slips.

Must-haves

  • Six months of admin or capturing work, or a completed learnership
  • You can concentrate on repetitive work for a full day
  • Basic Excel: sorting, filtering and simple formulas
  • Comfortable with overtime at month-end
  • Typing speed of at least 35 wpm with good accuracy

Helpful, not essential

  • Medical terminology or ICD-10 coding basics
  • Experience with a document management system
  • A Business Administration NQF Level 3 or 4 certificate

What's in it for you

  • Training on the company system from day one
  • Close to public transport routes
  • Office hours with overtime paid at the BCEA rate
  • Contracts that often turn permanent for strong performers
