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

How2Apply never charges you to apply, for training, for uniforms or for a "placement fee". If anyone asks you for money, it is a scam.

Put headcount, pay frequencies and software at the top of your CV (for example "900 staff, weekly and monthly, VIP").
Mention every SARS submission you have done yourself; recruiters ask about EMP501 recons in the first call.
