Work-Force
This is a current vacancy. We believe great workplaces are built on great people. We are looking for a Office Assistant in Komatipoort, and we encourage applicants from across Mpumalanga to consider this opportunity.
About the Opportunity
The organisation is investing in its Komatipoort operation, and this Office Assistant position reflects that commitment. The successful candidate will work across the administration jobs function and contribute to the wider Mpumalanga business.
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 Komatipoort team.
In addition, the role has been written to be sustainable, not just busy. Strong output is expected, and managers in Komatipoort also pay attention to recovery, learning and the kind of breathing room that keeps people doing good work over time.
Quality is everyone’s job. Whether the Office Assistant is processing a transaction, supporting a colleague or handling a customer query, the standard expected in Mpumalanga is consistently high and consistently fair.
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 Komatipoort.
Day in the Life
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.
Beyond that, the Komatipoort 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.
Beyond that, the rhythm rewards people who plan ahead but also pivot quickly when Mpumalanga operations throw up the unexpected.
No two days look exactly the same — and that variety is part of what keeps the role engaging for the right candidate in Komatipoort.
