Job Description

Clients sleep better when their tax is sorted, and a small tax practice in Coega needs you to sort it. If you like clear targets and knowing where you stand, this is for you.

You'll be based at a small tax practice in Coega. Living nearby, or on a taxi route to it, really helps.

What you'll actually do

  • Advise on deductions such as retirement contributions and home office claims
  • Respond to SARS verification letters and upload documents on time
  • Prepare VAT201 returns and review input tax claims
  • Calculate IRP6 provisional tax for individuals and companies
  • Prepare and submit ITR12, ITR14 and ITR12T returns on SARS eFiling

You'll need

  • Clear writing for SARS letters and objections
  • Neat, careful and organised with client documents
  • Registered tax practitioner with a recognised controlling body such as SAIT or SAIPA
  • At least 2 years of SARS eFiling experience
  • Comfortable handling tax season overtime

Helpful, not essential

  • Customs and excise knowledge for import-export clients
  • Postgraduate diploma in tax
  • Tax software experience such as TaxShop or CaseWare

On offer

  • Bonus at the end of filing season
  • Paid controlling body subscription
  • CPD hours paid by the firm
