A Registered Nurse position is being filled in Cape Town. Suitable candidates from across Western Cape are invited to submit their applications for review.
About the Opportunity
The Registered Nurse position is part of an ongoing recruitment drive across Western Cape. The brief has been shaped carefully, with a focus on delivery in Cape Town and across the health jobs space.
Expect a structured first ninety days, with onboarding milestones, regular check-ins, and an early focus on getting comfortable with the systems and processes that underpin the Cape Town team.

Based in Cape Town
Cape Town continues to grow as an employment hub in Western Cape, with near the V&A Waterfront precinct. This role gives you a foothold in one of its busier business communities, with access to the local services, suppliers and partners that keep the work moving.
Many candidates already living within reach of Cape Town cite the location as one of the role’s quiet wins, with shorter commutes and a real sense of being plugged into the local Western Cape economy.
Accessibility is taken seriously: where the role allows, the team works toward a balance of in-office presence and flexibility for candidates based in and around Cape Town.
Your Team
Notably, the team you will be working with is fast-paced and energetic. Things move quickly across the Cape Town office, and the people who thrive here are the ones who plan ahead, communicate openly and pick up the slack when Western Cape operations get busy.
