Requirements

Working Arrangement This role is hybrid. It begins as a part-time position (8–10 hours per week) for a three-month probation period, which is unpaid. From month 4 onwards, subject to satisfactory performance and the company's financial position at that time, the role is intended to transition to full-time with a fixed salary in the region of R14,000 – R18,000 per month, aligned to market rate and the candidate's demonstrated contribution.
Where business conditions do not yet support a full-time transition at month 4, the part-time arrangement may be extended on the same terms until conditions allow. A new contract will be issued to reflect the agreed terms at the point of transition.
The candidate must supply their own laptop and have a reliable internet connection.
Reporting Line This role reports directly to the Founder & Director, with day-to-day coordination alongside the Associate Director on marketing deliverables.
Pay: R14 000,00 - R18 000,00 per month
