Work-Force
Whether you are a seasoned Secretary or stepping into the role for the first time, there is space for you in Burgersfort. The team hires on merit and across communities in Limpopo.
The Role
The Secretary position is part of an ongoing recruitment drive across Limpopo. The brief has been shaped carefully, with a focus on delivery in Burgersfort and across the administration jobs space.
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 Burgersfort team.
Crucially, the role has been written to be sustainable, not just busy. Strong output is expected, and managers in Burgersfort also pay attention to recovery, learning and the kind of breathing room that keeps people doing good work over time.
What We Offer
You will join a team that values respectful collaboration, honest feedback and shared wins. The Burgersfort colleagues take pride in supporting one another and in doing the administration jobs side of the business properly, day in and day out.
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 Limpopo.
Recognition matters here. Strong performers are noticed quickly, and many promotions across the business have started in the Burgersfort teams.
Based in Burgersfort
Importantly, the role is based in Burgersfort, in the Lephalale energy corridor. Public transport links and parking are within easy reach, making the daily commute manageable for candidates living across Burgersfort and the broader Limpopo region.
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 Burgersfort.
Many candidates already living within reach of Burgersfort cite the location as one of the role’s quiet wins, with shorter commutes and a real sense of being plugged into the local Limpopo economy.
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.
Beyond that, the Burgersfort 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.
No two days look exactly the same — and that variety is part of what keeps the role engaging for the right candidate in Burgersfort.
