Job Description

At this engineering group in Brackenfell, you'll be the person who knows where everything and everyone is. Bring a calm head on busy days and you'll be fine.

Draft letters, reports and presentations in the house style.
Arrange events, client lunches and year-end functions.
Type court papers and manage trial dates for litigation roles.
Manage one or two diaries in Outlook and protect focus time.
Book local and international travel, visas and accommodation.
Keep a tidy filing system, both digital and on paper.

You'll need

At least 4 years supporting a senior manager or director
Calm when plans change at the last minute
Discreet with board, salary and legal information
Matric plus a secretarial, office admin or PA diploma

Helpful, not essential

SAP Concur or similar expense tools
Minute-taking or company secretarial training

What you get

Parking in a secure basement
Hybrid days once settled in
13th cheque and performance bonus

How to apply

Make sure the role, the hours and working in Brackenfell really suit you before you apply.
Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): two references from executives you worked for plus a recently certified ID copy (within 3 months).
Use the form on this page. It takes about two minutes and you don't need to upload anything yet.
Watch for a call or WhatsApp from How2Apply over the next 8 working days.

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

How2Apply never charges you to apply, for training, for uniforms or for a "placement fee". If anyone asks you for money, it is a scam.

Before you hit apply

Mention a problem you solved before your boss knew about it; that story wins PA interviews.
State whom you supported (for example "PA to the MD of a 300-person firm") in each job heading.
