Job Description

Questions come to you at a microlender in Paarl, and you answer them with data. People who do well here are steady, honest and not scared to ask when something is unclear.

You'll report in Paarl. Relocation is not covered for this one. The first two weeks are spent shadowing someone experienced.

What you'll actually do

  • Build ETL pipelines in SSIS, Azure Data Factory or Python
  • Present findings to managers in plain language with clear charts
  • Check data quality and trace odd numbers back to the source
  • Mask or remove personal information in data sets under POPIA
  • Build simple forecasting and segmentation models in Python or R
  • Write SQL to pull, join and clean data from several sources

What you need

  • Careful with sensitive customer data
  • Advanced Excel
  • Hands-on Power BI, Tableau or a similar tool
  • At least 2 years in a data or reporting role (not needed for graduate posts)

What's in it for you

  • Latest laptop with extra screen
  • Paid cloud and BI certifications
  • Annual bonus tied to company performance
  • Hybrid work with two office days

How to apply

  1. Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): certification transcripts plus academic record showing statistics or maths modules.
  3. Use the form on this page. It takes about two minutes and you don't need to upload anything yet.
  4. Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 9 working days.
