How to apply for this job

Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: proof of registration as a tax practitioner, certified tax or accounting qualification plus your own tax compliance status PIN, as firms check it.

Watch for a call or WhatsApp from How2Apply over the next 9 working days.

How2Apply recruits for this position on behalf of hiring employers around Komani; applications go into our talent pool and shortlisted candidates are introduced directly.

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

Make sure your own tax affairs are up to date, as some firms check your compliance status before they appoint.
Give an example of a SARS dispute you won or a verification you cleared; firms value real results.
