Job Description

Directors at this engineering group in Stellenbosch count on one person to keep their week on track. It's the kind of job where doing the basics well every day gets you noticed.

You'll be based at an engineering group in Stellenbosch. Living nearby, or on a taxi route to it, really helps.

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

You'll need

Excellent written English and polished emails
At least 4 years supporting a senior manager or director
Matric plus a secretarial, office admin or PA diploma
Advanced Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook

Helpful, not essential

A driver's licence for errands
Minute-taking or company secretarial training
SAP Concur or similar expense tools

On offer

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

Applying, step by step

Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
Keep copies of these ready to send: your PA or secretarial qualification plus a recently certified ID copy (within 3 months).
Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
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.

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.

Before you hit apply

Mention a problem you solved before your boss knew about it; that story wins PA interviews.
Expect practical tests on Word formatting, Excel and minute-taking, so brush up on styles and tables first.
