Frequently asked questions
Are these permanent jobs?
The official notice advertises three-year contracts. It does not describe these two positions as permanent appointments.
What does the 37% payment mean?
The advert states that it is paid in lieu of benefits in addition to the R237,453 annual salary. It is not a monthly salary figure, and the guide does not replace that wording with a guessed benefits package.
Is experience required?
No. The notice explicitly states that no experience is required. The Grade 12 or equivalent requirement and the listed knowledge and skills still apply.
Which closing time applies?
For 6 November 2026, the department lists 16:00 for walk-in applications and 23:59 for online applications. The advert supplies a per-post email address for electronic applications; no separate postal cut-off time is given.
What should an emailed application contain?
Combine the completed, initialled and signed new Z83 and updated comprehensive CV into one attachment. Include the correct title and HR4/4/9/28 reference in the email.
