Clinic Coordinator

An opportunity has arisen for a Clinic Coordinator in Kathu. Suitably qualified candidates from across Northern Cape are invited to apply.

The Role

The Clinic Coordinator vacancy forms part of how the Kathu branch keeps performing. It pairs day-to-day delivery with longer-running priorities that keep the health jobs side of the business moving forward.

Beyond that, the organisation keeps reporting lines clean and expectations realistic. Performance is measured against a small, agreed set of metrics, and there are no surprise yardsticks for the Clinic Coordinator taking on this position.

Internal documentation, process notes and shared playbooks make it easier for the Clinic Coordinator to step into the health jobs workflow quickly. Institutional knowledge is well-organised, so people are not reinventing the wheel from one week to the next.

Diversity and Inclusion

Crucially, 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.

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.

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

Your Future Here

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

Notably, internal mobility is encouraged. People who start in Kathu have moved into roles in other branches, specialist functions and project teams across Northern Cape.

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

Day in the Life

You start your shift with a thorough handover, picking up patient histories, treatment plans and any concerns from the previous team. The morning is paced but purposeful — vital signs, medication rounds, bedside conversations — and you’re constantly switching between clinical tasks and the very human work of reassuring patients and families. Multi-disciplinary rounds give you a chance to advocate for your patients, and by the time you hand over again, you have done meaningful work that makes a real difference to the people in your care.

On top of that, the Kathu office buzzes through peak hours and settles into focused, productive lulls in between, giving you time to plan and reset before the next stretch of work.

No two days look exactly the same — and that variety is part of what keeps the role engaging for the right candidate in Kathu.

Your Role

• Support quality improvement audits and clinical governance reviews
• Provide compassionate, patient-centred care in line with scope of practice
• Liaise with medical aids and process pre-authorisations where required
• Maintain a clean, safe and welcoming clinical environment
• Maintain accurate clinical records in line with SANC and POPIA
• Monitor vital signs and escalate clinical concerns to the attending clinician
• Educate patients and families on treatment plans and self-care

Essential Criteria

• Relevant clinical qualification from a recognised institution
• BLS, ACLS or PALS certification where applicable to the role
• Strong patient-centred communication and interpersonal skills
• Commitment to ongoing CPD and clinical learning
• Working knowledge of POPIA as it applies to patient information

Potential is considered alongside experience, so candidates who tick most of these boxes should still be considered.
