Job Description

You'll keep staff files, contracts and HR admin in order at a hospital personnel office in Mahikeng. It's the kind of job where doing the basics well every day gets you noticed.

  • Help organise wellness days, long-service awards and staff events.

You'll need

  • Good MS Office skills, especially Word and Excel
  • Willing to learn and follow HR procedures closely
  • Friendly and approachable with staff at every level
  • Neat, organised filing habits

Helpful, not essential

  • Minute-taking training
  • Knowledge of SETA processes and the Skills Development Act

What's in it for you

  • Mentorship from a senior HR practitioner
  • Study support toward an HR qualification
