Job Description

A small tax practice in Soweto needs a tax practitioner who knows eFiling inside out. If you learn fast and don't mind being shown things twice, you'll settle in within a few weeks.

Home base is a small tax practice on the Soweto side of Gauteng.

What you'll actually do

  • Keep client tax files complete for five years
  • Apply for tax clearance and tax compliance status PINs
  • Prepare and submit ITR12, ITR14 and ITR12T returns on SARS eFiling
  • Respond to SARS verification letters and upload documents on time
  • Calculate IRP6 provisional tax for individuals and companies
  • Prepare VAT201 returns and review input tax claims

You'll need

  • Clear writing for SARS letters and objections
  • Neat, careful and organised with client documents
  • Working knowledge of the Income Tax Act and VAT Act
  • At least 2 years of SARS eFiling experience
  • Degree or diploma in accounting or tax
  • Comfortable handling tax season overtime

Helpful, not essential

  • Postgraduate diploma in tax
  • Customs and excise knowledge for import-export clients

What's in it for you

  • CPD hours paid by the firm
  • Paid controlling body subscription
  • Bonus at the end of filing season

How to apply

  1. Make sure the role, the hours and working in Soweto really suit you before you apply.
  2. Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: your own tax compliance status PIN, as firms check it, proof of registration as a tax practitioner plus certified tax or accounting qualification.
  3. Use the form on this page. It takes about two minutes and you don't need to upload anything yet.
  4. Watch for a call or WhatsApp from How2Apply over the next 5 working days.

Your application joins the How2Apply talent pool for this role, and we put shortlisted people forward to employers hiring in and around Soweto.

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.

How to stand out

  • List your tax practitioner number and controlling body in the first line of your CV.
  • Make sure your own tax affairs are up to date, as some firms check your compliance status before they appoint.
