Job Description

This is a strong first step into HR at a hospital personnel office in Centurion. Bring a calm head on busy days and you'll be fine.

You'll be based at a hospital personnel office in Centurion. Living nearby, or on a taxi route to it, really helps. Start date: as soon as possible for the right person.

The work, day to day

  • Answer staff questions on policies, leave balances and benefits.
  • Capture leave, sick notes and family responsibility leave on the HR system.
  • Enrol new staff on medical aid and retirement funds and process exits.
  • Book training, track attendance and load results for the skills report.
  • Book pre-employment medicals and qualification checks.
  • Archive old records and follow the retention periods for HR files.
  • Load job ads and do first-round CV sorting for the recruiter.

You'll need

  • Discreet with personal and medical information
  • Friendly and approachable with staff at every level
  • Good MS Office skills, especially Word and Excel
  • Basic understanding of the BCEA leave rules
  • Neat, organised filing habits

Nice if you have

  • Sage 300 People, PaySpace or another HR system
  • Knowledge of SETA processes and the Skills Development Act

On offer

  • Mentorship from a senior HR practitioner
  • Monthly internship stipend for graduate roles
  • A clear route to HR officer after 12 to 24 months

Applying, step by step

  1. Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): a short cover letter saying which part of HR interests you plus certified copy of your smart ID card or green ID book.
  3. Use the form on this page. It takes about two minutes and you don't need to upload anything yet.
  4. Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 6 working days.
