A friendly Receptionist is wanted for a stable company in Alberton North, listed in Turffontein by The Recruitment Pig. This permanent intermediate-level role will suit a warm, organised person who can keep a front office running smoothly and give visitors and callers a great first impression.
The client is a well-established business that has supplied testing equipment since 1987. It imports and distributes quality laboratory tools to engineering, mining and construction customers, and is described as a market leader offering a very stable and secure workplace. The receptionist will use friendly front-office skills to keep the office running smoothly, with support to learn and grow an administration career, helping the team stay organised while customers receive fast service.
The receptionist will answer incoming switchboard calls politely and transfer them to the right staff member, and welcome visitors, clients and courier drivers with a warm smile at the front desk. Daily work includes scanning documents, invoices and delivery notes so they are saved on the computer, helping with basic office administration such as printing, photocopying and neat filing, and taking clear telephone messages and making sure staff receive them right away. The role also covers receiving and sorting daily parcels, post and courier deliveries at reception, and keeping the front reception desk and waiting area neat, clean and tidy.
A completed Matric or Grade 12 certificate is essential, along with previous experience working as a receptionist or answering a busy office switchboard. Candidates need basic experience with scanning documents and doing simple office filing, a polite, friendly and clear telephone voice when speaking to clients, and basic computer skills in Microsoft Word, Excel and Outlook email. Good attention to detail when taking messages and saving scanned paperwork is required, as are a positive attitude, a willingness to learn, and the ability to work well as part of a team.
