Job Description

At this engineering group in Gqeberha, you'll be the person who knows where everything and everyone is. It's the kind of job where doing the basics well every day gets you noticed.

Location: Gqeberha, Eastern Cape. Applicants who already live in the area get looked at first. Weekend work is on a roster, so you won't be on every weekend.

What your day looks like

  • Keep sensitive files locked and access limited to those who need it.
  • Manage one or two diaries in Outlook and protect focus time.
  • Draft letters, reports and presentations in the house style.
  • Type court papers and manage trial dates for litigation roles.
  • Book local and international travel, visas and accommodation.
  • Keep a tidy filing system, both digital and on paper.

Must-haves

  • At least 4 years supporting a senior manager or director
  • Matric plus a secretarial, office admin or PA diploma
  • Advanced Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook
  • Available for the odd early start or late finish

Helpful, not essential

  • Minute-taking or company secretarial training
  • Legal secretary experience with court processes

What you get

  • 13th cheque and performance bonus
  • Hybrid days once settled in
  • Medical aid and provident fund
  • Parking in a secure basement
