Secretary

A Secretary is needed in Kroonstad. The role focuses on consistent delivery, accurate work and clear communication across the Free State operation.

About the Opportunity

The organisation is investing in its Kroonstad operation, and this Secretary position reflects that commitment. The successful candidate will work across the administration jobs function and contribute to the wider Free State 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 Kroonstad team.

Stakeholders for this position include line managers, peers across the administration jobs team and trusted external partners. Building those relationships early makes the next twelve months in Kroonstad much easier.

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 Kroonstad.

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.

Beyond that, 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 Kroonstad site adheres to the standards expected of a responsible South African employer.

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

Based in Kroonstad

Working in Kroonstad means a place near the Sasolburg industrial complex, with a steady flow of activity and a strong local economy. The team has built solid relationships across the Free State region, and the Kroonstad office benefits from those long-standing connections.

If you are relocating, the team can share practical pointers on neighbourhoods, transport and the typical pace of life in Kroonstad, Free State.

Accessibility is taken seriously: where the role allows, the team works toward a balance of in-office presence and flexibility for candidates based in and around Kroonstad.

Many candidates already living within reach of Kroonstad cite the location as one of the role’s quiet wins, with shorter commutes and a real sense of being plugged into the local Free State economy.

Your Team

You will join a tight-knit, collaborative team that knows the administration jobs side of the business inside out. The Kroonstad group is a healthy mix of experienced operators and newer joiners, all of whom share a strong commitment to delivery and to one another.

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.

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

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

Career Growth

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

Growth conversations happen at a regular cadence — not just at year-end — so the path forward stays current and realistic for every Kroonstad team member.

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

Internal mobility is encouraged. People who start in Kroonstad have moved into roles in other branches, specialist functions and project teams across Free State.
