Phlebotomist

Listing live now. We believe great workplaces are built on great people. We are looking for a Phlebotomist in Vereeniging, and we encourage applicants from across Gauteng to consider this opportunity.

About This Position

An experienced Phlebotomist is needed to support operations in Vereeniging. The role forms part of how the business keeps its health jobs portfolio strong in Gauteng.

Communication runs both ways. Managers across the health jobs team in Gauteng make time for one-to-ones, and people are expected to speak up early when something needs attention.

Quality is everyone’s job. Whether the Phlebotomist is processing a transaction, supporting a colleague or handling a customer query, the standard expected in Gauteng is consistently high and consistently fair.

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

What Your Day Looks Like

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.

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

Equally, the Vereeniging 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.

Notably, the rhythm rewards people who plan ahead but also pivot quickly when Gauteng operations throw up the unexpected.

Your Team

Equally, the team you will be working with is fast-paced and energetic. Things move quickly across the Vereeniging office, and the people who thrive here are the ones who plan ahead, communicate openly and pick up the slack when Gauteng operations get busy.

Importantly, the team mix in Vereeniging reflects a balance of experienced operators and emerging talent, with deliberate space for diverse voices and backgrounds.

Line management is hands-on without being heavy. Expect regular one-to-ones, honest feedback and the support needed to do good work consistently.

Collaboration is the default working mode. Whether picking up a quick query or working through a complex project, you will find colleagues willing to lean in and help.

Why This Role

Crucially, the company invests in the people who join it. From structured onboarding to ongoing skills development, you will find clear paths to grow your career in health jobs from your base in Vereeniging. Many colleagues across Gauteng have moved into senior roles after starting in positions just like this one.

Benefits are clear and consistent. Beyond the package on offer, the role includes the supports you would expect from an established South African employer in Gauteng.

Recognition matters here. Strong performers are noticed quickly, and many promotions across the business have started in the Vereeniging teams.

On top of that, the company reinvests in its people: paid training, internal moves and the chance to take on bigger projects are all part of how careers in Vereeniging keep progressing.

Our Commitment to Transformation

Diverse teams build stronger workplaces. Applications are welcome from candidates of every background, language and community across Gauteng, and recruitment is fair, transparent and aligned with the EE Act.

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

Inclusive hiring extends through onboarding and into how teams operate every day. Respectful, fair conduct is expected from every team member in Vereeniging.

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.

Where You’ll Work

Beyond that, the environment is clinical, regulated and patient-centred. Shift work, infection control protocols and clear scope-of-practice boundaries are part of every working day.

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

Health, safety and well-being are taken seriously. Current policies and procedures are maintained, and the Vereeniging site adheres to the standards expected of a responsible South African employer.

Importantly, 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.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Support infection prevention and control protocols across the unit
• Administer prescribed medications and document treatments accurately
• Participate in multi-disciplinary ward rounds and care planning
• Respond appropriately to medical emergencies and code calls
• Maintain accurate clinical records in line with SANC and POPIA

What You’ll Need

• Clear criminal record verified through approved screening
• BLS, ACLS or PALS certification where applicable to the role
