Job Description

Accurate payslips, clean tax filings and happy staff: that's the job at a hospitality group in Harrismith. Expect to be trusted with real work from your first week.

You'll be based at a hospitality group in Harrismith. Living nearby, or on a taxi route to it, really helps. Weekend work is on a roster, so you won't be on every weekend.

The work, day to day

  • Run weekly and monthly payrolls and check the variance reports
  • Declare UIF on uFiling and help staff with UI-19 forms
  • Submit monthly EMP201 returns and pay PAYE, UIF and SDL on eFiling
  • Capture new hires, terminations, increases and deductions before cut-off
  • Answer staff payslip queries clearly and in private
  • Release the salary bank file for authorisation
  • Submit Compensation Fund returns of earnings

What you need

  • You keep salary information private under POPIA
  • At least 2 years of full-function payroll
  • Sound knowledge of PAYE, UIF, SDL and the BCEA
  • Experience on Sage 300 People, VIP, PaySpace or SimplePay

What's in it for you

  • Paid SAPP membership
  • Structured increases linked to certification
  • Group life and disability cover

Applying, step by step

  1. Make sure the role, the hours and working in Harrismith really suit you before you apply.
  2. Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: payroll qualification certificate, list of payroll systems you have run, with headcount plus certified copy of your matric.
  3. Fill in the short form below with your name and a phone number you actually answer.
  4. Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 8 working days.
