Office Manager

About This Position

An experienced Office Manager is needed to support operations in Kuruman. The role forms part of how the business keeps its administration jobs portfolio strong in Northern Cape.

The role suits a candidate who values consistency and clear communication. The Kuruman operation runs on accurate work, steady relationships and a genuine respect for the people in the team.

Internal documentation, process notes and shared playbooks make it easier for the Office Manager to step into the administration jobs workflow quickly. Institutional knowledge is well-organised, so people are not reinventing the wheel from one week to the next.

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

Your Future Here

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

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

In addition, internal mobility is encouraged. People who start in Kuruman have moved into roles in other branches, specialist functions and project teams across Northern Cape.

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

Equal Opportunity

Importantly, the organisation is committed to transformation and equal opportunity. Hiring is on merit, and applications are actively encouraged from women, youth, people with disabilities and other historically disadvantaged groups in line with the Employment Equity plan and B-BBEE objectives.

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.

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

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

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 Northern Cape.

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

Crucially, 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 Kuruman keep progressing.
