Job Description

You'll be the first voice and face of an accounting practice in Kimberley. If you learn fast and don't mind being shown things twice, you'll settle in within a few weeks.

Location: Kimberley, Northern Cape. Applicants who already live in the area get looked at first. Most weeks are 45 hours, in line with the BCEA.

What you'll actually do

  • Order stationery and cleaning supplies and check deliveries.
  • Type basic letters and update the internal phone list.
  • Scan, file and archive documents in the correct client folders.
  • Keep visitor and client details private under POPIA.
  • Sort incoming post and book couriers for outgoing documents.
  • Check patients in, verify medical aid details and collect co-payments.
  • Keep the reception area neat and the coffee station stocked.

Must-haves

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

Nice if you have

  • A secretarial or office administration certificate
  • Typing speed above 40 wpm

What's in it for you

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

Applying, step by step

  1. Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): a neat CV with two references, certified copy of your ID plus certified copy of your matric certificate.
  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 9 working days.

How to stand out

  • List the phone systems and booking software you have used; practices look for people who need little training.
  • Your CV is your first test of neatness, so keep it one or two pages, one font and no spelling errors.
