Medical Records Clerk

Posted recently. We believe great workplaces are built on great people. We are looking for a Medical Records Clerk in Stellenbosch, and we encourage applicants from across Western Cape to consider this opportunity.

Overview

The organisation is investing in its Stellenbosch operation, and this Medical Records Clerk position reflects that commitment. The successful candidate will work across the health jobs function and contribute to the wider Western Cape business.

Equally, the role suits a candidate who values consistency and clear communication. The Stellenbosch operation runs on accurate work, steady relationships and a genuine respect for the people in the team.

Tools, systems and information are there to support the role rather than slow it down. The company continues to invest in the technology that backs its Stellenbosch teams, and the new Medical Records Clerk will feel that from the first week.

Beyond that, the role has been written to be sustainable, not just busy. Strong output is expected, and managers in Stellenbosch also pay attention to recovery, learning and the kind of breathing room that keeps people doing good work over time.

Why Join Us

You will join a team that values respectful collaboration, honest feedback and shared wins. The Stellenbosch colleagues take pride in supporting one another and in doing the health jobs side of the business properly, day in and day out.

Importantly, the company reinvests in its people: paid training, internal moves and the chance to take on bigger projects are all part of how careers in Stellenbosch keep progressing.

Recognition matters here. Strong performers are noticed quickly, and many promotions across the business have started in the Stellenbosch teams.

Benefits are clear and consistent. Beyond the package on offer, the role includes the supports you would expect from an established South African employer in Western Cape.

Where You’ll Work

On top of that, the environment is clinical, regulated and patient-centred. Shift work, infection control protocols and clear scope-of-practice boundaries are part of every working day.

A respectful, professional environment is the standard in Western Cape. Bullying, harassment and unfair conduct have no place here, and managers are trained to act decisively when concerns are raised.

Notably, the working environment is set up to give the team the focus needed for deeper work, while keeping collaboration and quick problem-solving close at hand.

Health, safety and well-being are taken seriously. Current policies and procedures are maintained, and the Stellenbosch site adheres to the standards expected of a responsible South African employer.

Our Commitment to Transformation

On top of that, the organisation is committed to transformation and equal opportunity. Hiring is on merit, and applications are actively encouraged from women, youth, people with disabilities and other historically disadvantaged groups in line with the Employment Equity plan and B-BBEE objectives.

Practical steps back the words. Structured EE reporting, transformation initiatives and learnership programmes give real opportunities to candidates from across Western Cape.

B-BBEE compliance is more than a scorecard here. It informs how the business invests in skills development, supplier diversity and community engagement across the country.

Inclusive hiring extends through onboarding and into how teams operate every day. Respectful, fair conduct is expected from every team member in Stellenbosch.

Career Growth

This role can grow with you. Strong performers in the health jobs team in Stellenbosch have moved into senior, supervisory and specialist positions, and that journey is supported through coaching, training and exposure to bigger projects.

Growth conversations happen at a regular cadence — not just at year-end — so the path forward stays current and realistic for every Stellenbosch team member.

Internal mobility is encouraged. People who start in Stellenbosch have moved into roles in other branches, specialist functions and project teams across Western Cape.

Training is a mix of formal courses, structured on-the-job learning and exposure to broader projects, all geared at building practical skills.
