Job Description

This is a strong first step into HR at an university staffing office in Soweto. This is a good step for someone who wants proper routine and a manager who notices good work.

You'll be based at an university staffing office in Soweto. Living nearby, or on a taxi route to it, really helps. Start date: as soon as possible for the right person.

What you'll actually do

  • Enrol new staff on medical aid and retirement funds and process exits.
  • Archive old records and follow the retention periods for HR files.
  • Help organise wellness days, long-service awards and staff events.
  • Take minutes at hearings and HR meetings.
  • Capture leave, sick notes and family responsibility leave on the HR system.

What you need

  • Friendly and approachable with staff at every level
  • Basic understanding of the BCEA leave rules
  • Neat, organised filing habits
  • Good MS Office skills, especially Word and Excel

Helpful, not essential

  • Sage 300 People, PaySpace or another HR system
  • Any HR admin or internship experience
  • Minute-taking training

What you get

  • Study support toward an HR qualification
  • Monthly internship stipend for graduate roles
  • A clear route to HR officer after 12 to 24 months
  • Mentorship from a senior HR practitioner

How to apply for this job

  1. Make sure the role, the hours and working in Soweto really suit you before you apply.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): certified copy of your smart ID card or green ID book, certified copies of your qualifications and academic record plus a short cover letter saying which part of HR interests you.
  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 8 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.

How to stand out

  • If you are a graduate, put your qualification, graduation year and any HR modules at the top of your CV.
  • Attach your full academic record; HR internships often filter on marks in labour law and HR modules.
