Other

This is primarily a work-from-home role, so you'll need your own reliable laptop, a strong fibre internet connection, a noise-cancelling headset, and a quiet workspace with backup power. We offer a monthly work-from-home and connectivity allowance to support you.

While remote, team collaboration is important. You’ll need to attend occasional in-person team meetings and training sessions—so ideally, you should be based in or around Johannesburg.
