Job description
Tech-Savvy Project & Admin Assistant (Enterprise System Rollout)
Opportunities like this do not come around often.
The Role We have just green-lit a massive, company-wide enterprise system rollout. Getting this off the ground is going to require a monumental amount of background work, and we need an assistant to help drive it.
Let’s be clear upfront: this role involves mountains of administration, intense research, and heavy data wrangling. It is not a cushy, slow-paced filing job. You will be the administrative engine behind a major tech transition.
Who We Are Looking For You aren’t just "computer literate" or "good at Word." You are a genuine tech enthusiast. You probably watch tech YouTube channels in your downtime, keep up with the latest hardware and software trends, and naturally look for the smartest, most efficient way to use technology.
But a love for tech isn't enough. You must have an absolutely ruthless, non-negotiable attention to detail. If a single data point is out of place in a massive spreadsheet, it will bother you until it’s fixed.
What You Will Actually Do
- Heavy Administration: Process, organize, and migrate large volumes of data and documentation required to build out the new system.
- Intense Research: Deep-dive into system capabilities, processes, and tech solutions, reporting back with clear, actionable summaries.
- System Support: Act as the right-hand admin to the Executive Manager, ensuring nothing falls through the cracks during the rollout.
- Problem Solving: Use your tech-savvy nature to figure out how things work and find workarounds for administrative bottlenecks.
The Non-Negotiables
- Highly Computer Literate: You need to be the person friends and family call when their tech breaks. You must intuitively understand software, operating systems, and basic troubleshooting.
- Impeccable Accuracy: We are building an enterprise system. Mistakes at the foundational level cascade into massive problems later. Your attention to detail must be flawless.
- Work Ethic: The sheer volume of work required to launch this system will be heavy. We need someone who gets stuck in, organizes the chaos, and doesn’t get easily overwhelmed by large, repetitive admin tasks.
Why This Job? We don’t do corporate fluff. This is an Industrial manufacturing environment. We work hard, we cut the red tape, and we get things done. If you are a tech-minded individual who wants to be on the ground floor of a massive digital overhaul—and you have the grit to handle the admin load that comes with it—this is for you.
To Apply: Send your CV and a brief cover letter telling us what your current favorite piece of tech or software is and why. Admin@capeboiler.co.za
Pay: R23 000,00 - R26 000,00 per month
