Job Description

Get hands-on support experience at a call centre campus in Stellenbosch, from password resets to new laptop builds. Bring a calm head on busy days and you'll be fine.

The site is in Stellenbosch; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying. Weekend work is on a roster, so you won't be on every weekend.

What you'll actually do

  • Replace faulty hardware and log warranty claims with suppliers
  • Keep the asset register up to date when equipment moves
  • Log, prioritise and update tickets on the service desk system
  • Image, set up and hand over new laptops and desktops
  • Visit branches or sites to fix issues that need hands on the machine
  • Troubleshoot Outlook, Teams and OneDrive problems for users
  • Connect users remotely with a remote support tool to fix issues

Must-haves

  • At least 1 year of help desk or desktop support (not needed for intern posts)
  • Basic networking: IP addresses, DNS, DHCP and Wi-Fi
  • Working knowledge of Windows 10 and 11 and Microsoft 365
  • Code B driver's licence and own car for field posts
  • Patient and friendly with non-technical users

Nice if you have

  • Experience supporting point-of-sale or medical devices
  • CompTIA Network+ or Microsoft MD-102 certification
  • Experience with Intune or SCCM for device management

What you get

  • Clear path to second-line and systems roles
  • Travel allowance for field technicians
  • Company laptop and cellphone
  • Paid certification exams after probation

How to apply

  1. Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
  2. Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: copy of your driver's licence for field posts, IT certificates, including A+ or N+ if you have them plus certified matric certificate and ID copy.
  3. Use the form on this page. It takes about two minutes and you don't need to upload anything yet.
  4. If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 5 working days, usually by phone.

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

Applying is free. Nobody from How2Apply will ever ask you to pay for anything to get this job.

How to stand out

  • List your certifications right under your name; A+ and ITIL are common keyword filters.
  • Be ready for a practical test on a real laptop or a phone troubleshooting role-play.
