Job Description

You'll be the first voice and face of a private school in Centurion. It's a practical job: you'll see what you got done before you go home.

Home base is a private school on the Centurion side of Gauteng. Weekend work is on a roster, so you won't be on every weekend.

  • Check patients in, verify medical aid details and collect co-payments.
  • Scan, file and archive documents in the correct client folders.
  • Take clear phone messages and send them by email straight away.
  • Book appointments, meeting rooms and boardroom catering.
  • Keep the reception area neat and the coffee station stocked.
  • Sort incoming post and book couriers for outgoing documents.

You'll need

  • Discreet with confidential information
  • Microsoft Word, Outlook and basic Excel
  • At least 1 year on reception or a front desk
  • You can juggle a ringing phone and a waiting visitor at once
  • A warm, clear phone manner in English

What you get

  • Safe, secure parking
  • Paid study leave for office admin courses
  • Annual bonus (13th cheque) at many practices
  • Normal office hours, Monday to Friday

Applying, step by step

  1. Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
  2. Keep copies of these ready to send: certified copy of your matric certificate plus your typing or admin certificate, if any.
