Job Details
If you land this job, you’ll be based at the Head Office in Pretoria—right at the heart of things. The Office of the Public Service Commission is hiring for a Registry and Transport Clerk, and they’re offering a level five salary: between R 152 862 and R 180 063 a year, not bad at all. But don’t get too excited just yet—you’ll need to tick a few boxes first. A Senior Certificate is non-negotiable, along with a valid code 10 or 8 driver’s license (and yes, a PDP is mandatory). Oh, and you’d better have at least three years under your belt as a messenger or driver—this isn’t an entry-level gig.
Now, let’s talk about what they’re really looking for. It’s not just about showing up and clocking in. You’ll need to be:
– Computer literate (no, hunting and pecking at the keyboard won’t cut it)
– Decent at putting out small fires—basic problem-solving, in other words
– A team player (cliché, but true—no lone wolves need apply)
– Someone who can talk the talk—strong communication skills are a must
– Discreet—because handling confidential info isn’t just a line in the job description, it’s a daily reality
– Cool under pressure (deadlines, last-minute requests, the usual chaos)
– Experienced in record keeping, registry functions, and filing—because paperwork, unfortunately, never goes away
So, what will you actually *do* all day? Well, for starters:
– Keep the mail moving—managing courier parcels, sorting through correspondence, and making sure nothing gets lost in the shuffle.
– Run the franking machine like a pro (because licking stamps went out of style decades ago).
– Track every delivery—incoming, outgoing, you name it. If it’s moving, you’ll know where it is.
– Drive and maintain GG vehicles (and no, that doesn’t mean just filling up the tank). These cars need to be washed weekly, too—so if you’re allergic to a little elbow grease, this might not be the role for you.
It’s a mix of logistics, admin, and a bit of hustle. If that sounds like your kind of rhythm, you might just be the right fit. If you’re interested in other administrative roles, check out this vacancy at the Department of Public Service and Administration.
