Job Description

You'll be the person who fixes it when laptops, printers and logins break at a group of private schools in Rustenburg. People who do well here are steady, honest and not scared to ask when something is unclear.

  • Patient and friendly with non-technical users
  • Matric plus an IT qualification, such as CompTIA A+ or an IT diploma

On offer
