Job Description

This private equity office in Sandton needs an assistant who thinks two steps ahead. Bring a calm head on busy days and you'll be fine.

You'll report in Sandton. Relocation is not covered for this one.

  • Prepare expense claims and reconcile the company credit card.
  • Book local and international travel, visas and accommodation.
  • Arrange events, client lunches and year-end functions.
  • Take minutes at board and exco meetings and track action items.

What you need

  • Calm when plans change at the last minute
  • Advanced Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook
  • At least 4 years supporting a senior manager or director
  • Excellent written English and polished emails

Helpful, not essential

  • Minute-taking or company secretarial training
  • Afrikaans or another second language for client work

On offer

  • Hybrid days once settled in
  • Medical aid and provident fund
  • Parking in a secure basement

How to apply

  1. Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
  2. Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: a CV naming the level of executives you supported, a recently certified ID copy (within 3 months) plus your PA or secretarial qualification.
  3. Use the form on this page. It takes about two minutes and you don't need to upload anything yet.
  4. Watch for a call or WhatsApp from How2Apply over the next 10 working days.

Your application joins the How2Apply talent pool for this role, and we put shortlisted people forward to employers hiring in and around Sandton.

Applying is free. Nobody from How2Apply will ever ask you to pay for anything to get this job.

How to stand out

  • Expect practical tests on Word formatting, Excel and minute-taking, so brush up on styles and tables first.
  • Mention a problem you solved before your boss knew about it; that story wins PA interviews.
