Job Description

A hospitality group in Soweto needs a payroll person who never misses a cut-off. It's a practical job: you'll see what you got done before you go home.

You'll be based at a hospitality group in Soweto. Living nearby, or on a taxi route to it, really helps. Hours are mostly Monday to Friday, with the odd Saturday in busy months.

The work, day to day

  • Answer staff payslip queries clearly and in private
  • Capture new hires, terminations, increases and deductions before cut-off
  • Submit monthly EMP201 returns and pay PAYE, UIF and SDL on eFiling
  • Declare UIF on uFiling and help staff with UI-19 forms
  • Import clock-card data and check overtime against approved hours

You'll need

  • Reliable with deadlines that cannot move
  • You keep salary information private under POPIA
  • Experience on Sage 300 People, VIP, PaySpace or SimplePay
  • Comfortable with Excel reconciliations

Helpful, not essential

  • SAPP registration as a Payroll Practitioner
  • Experience with medical aid and pension fund reconciliations
  • Knowledge of employment equity and WSP reporting

What's in it for you

  • Paid SAPP membership
  • Group life and disability cover
  • Structured increases linked to certification

Applying, step by step

  1. Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
  2. Keep copies of these ready to send: payroll qualification certificate, list of payroll systems you have run, with headcount plus certified copy of your matric.
  3. Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
  4. If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 9 working days, usually by phone.

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.

Tips to get shortlisted

  • Say how many employees you paid and how often, such as "1,200 weekly-paid staff on VIP"; volume matters.
  • Never attach real payslips from a past employer; blank out names if you use one as an example.
