Job Description

If you’re the kind of person who thrives on structure, loves getting things exactly right, and knows your way around SARS like the back of your hand, this one’s worth your attention.

A well-established, professional environment is looking for a detail-driven Administrator to join their Tax & Accounting team. This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys working behind the scenes to keep everything running smoothly, while still being exposed to a fast-paced, client-focused environment.

You’ll step into a role where your work genuinely matters, from managing SARS processes to supporting a high-performing team and ensuring deadlines are consistently met.

What you’ll be doing:

  • Supporting the full administration function within the tax department
  • Managing SARS-related processes including registrations, deregistrations and updates
  • Working extensively on SARS eFiling and the SARS portal
  • Preparing and collating documentation for submissions and compliance requirements
  • Handling SARS and general tax-related queries
  • Liaising with SARS consultants, internal teams and clients
  • Assisting with Department of Labour (DOL) processes when required
  • Supporting ad hoc tax and administrative tasks
  • Working towards monthly targets and maintaining high-quality standards

What we’re looking for:

  • 2–3 years’ experience in a tax or accounting environment
  • Solid working knowledge of SARS procedures and eFiling (non-negotiable)
  • Strong administrative skills with high attention to detail
  • Confident communicator — both written and verbal
  • Able to manage deadlines and juggle multiple priorities
  • Highly organised with strong time management
  • Comfortable working in a team and in a fast-paced environment
  • Professional, client-focused approach

Bonus points if you have:

  • Exposure to GreatSoft
  • Experience with DOL and/or U-Filing
  • Strong Excel and MS Office skills

Other requirements:

  • Bilingual in Afrikaans and English
  • Positive, hands-on attitude with a willingness to learn

This is the kind of role where reliability, accuracy and consistency are everything, perfect for someone who takes pride in their work and enjoys being the person others can depend on.

If you don’t hear back from us within 2 weeks of applying, please consider your application unsuccessful. But stay in touch, follow us online and keep an eye out for future opportunities.
