Job Description

Directors at this litigation law firm in Brakpan count on one person to keep their week on track. If you learn fast and don't mind being shown things twice, you'll settle in within a few weeks.

You'll report in Brakpan. Relocation is not covered for this one. Shifts rotate, so you'll need to be flexible about days and nights.

  • Type court papers and manage trial dates for litigation roles.
  • Keep a tidy filing system, both digital and on paper.
  • Coordinate with other PAs to find meeting slots across diaries.
  • Keep sensitive files locked and access limited to those who need it.
  • Screen calls and emails and deal with what does not need the boss.

What you need

  • Advanced Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook
  • Matric plus a secretarial, office admin or PA diploma
  • Excellent written English and polished emails
  • Available for the odd early start or late finish

On offer

  • Hybrid days once settled in
  • Parking in a secure basement
  • Medical aid and provident fund
  • 13th cheque and performance bonus
