Work-Force
Posted recently. We believe great workplaces are built on great people. We are looking for a Conveyancing Secretary in Barberton, and we encourage applicants from across Mpumalanga to consider this opportunity.
The Role
The Conveyancing Secretary position is part of an ongoing recruitment drive across Mpumalanga. The brief has been shaped carefully, with a focus on delivery in Barberton and across the legal and security jobs space.
Day-to-day, the role balances focused delivery with the kind of collaboration that keeps things moving. The successful candidate is trusted to make sensible decisions inside the agreed scope, with line-management support whenever a sounding board is useful.
Quality is everyone’s job. Whether the Conveyancing Secretary is processing a transaction, supporting a colleague or handling a customer query, the standard expected in Mpumalanga is consistently high and consistently fair.
Stakeholders for this position include line managers, peers across the legal and security jobs team and trusted external partners. Building those relationships early makes the next twelve months in Barberton much easier.
What We Offer
You will join a team that values respectful collaboration, honest feedback and shared wins. The Barberton colleagues take pride in supporting one another and in doing the legal and security jobs side of the business properly, day in and day out.
In addition, the role’s development opportunities, training and benefits, if offered, will be set out in the final vacancy details.
Crucially, the package, working arrangements and any available support will be confirmed by the hiring organisation for this vacancy.
Career development may be available depending on the role, business needs and the hiring organisation’s policies.
What Your Day Looks Like
Your day is built on focus and detail. You work through matter files or post lists, review evidence or contracts and check that every required record is in place. Communication with site teams, attorneys, clients or SAPS is constant, and you keep your reports factual, precise and timely. When something out of the ordinary happens, you respond calmly and follow procedure, knowing that good documentation today protects the business tomorrow.
No two days look exactly the same — and that variety is part of what keeps the role engaging for the right candidate in Barberton.
Beyond that, the Barberton 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.
Equally, the rhythm rewards people who plan ahead but also pivot quickly when Mpumalanga operations throw up the unexpected.

Health, safety and well-being are taken seriously. Current policies and procedures are maintained, and the Barberton site adheres to the standards expected of a responsible South African employer.
About the Team
Practically speaking, you will join a tight-knit, collaborative team that knows the legal and security jobs side of the business inside out. The Barberton group is a healthy mix of experienced operators and newer joiners, all of whom share a strong commitment to delivery and to one another.
Equally, the team structure and working relationships for this role in Barberton will be explained during the hiring process.
Line management is hands-on without being heavy. Expect regular one-to-ones, honest feedback and the support needed to do good work consistently.
