Overview

An experienced Data Capturer is needed to support operations in De Aar. The role forms part of how the business keeps its administration jobs portfolio strong in Northern Cape.

The successful applicant is given the room to plan, deliver and review their work without unnecessary noise. The organisation has built its De Aar team on trust, and the Data Capturer role will feel that from week one.

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 De Aar teams, and the new Data Capturer will feel that from the first week.

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

Reasonable working hours and respectful planning are part of how the role runs. The team values strong delivery, and load is balanced fairly across the administration jobs group in De Aar.

Your Workplace

Importantly, the environment is professional and structured. Expect a calm, well-organised office, a steady flow of support requests, and a strong culture of confidentiality.

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

Crucially, 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 De Aar site adheres to the standards expected of a responsible South African employer.

What Your Day Looks Like

Your day starts at the front of the business, ready to greet visitors, answer the switchboard and make sure the leadership diaries are in order. Through the morning you balance calls, couriers, capturing data and supporting projects with neat, accurate work. After lunch, you might be preparing minutes from a board pack, helping HR onboard a new starter, or chasing a courier across town. By close of day, every desk you support knows you have it covered, and the office is set up for a calm, productive tomorrow.

Practically speaking, the rhythm rewards people who plan ahead but also pivot quickly when Northern Cape operations throw up the unexpected.

Practically speaking, the De Aar 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.
