Minimum requirements and licence exemption
Applicants need Matric or a relevant qualification, with a minimum of one year of working experience in a Supply Chain Management environment. The portal describes the alternative educational route as a relevant equivalent certificate. A valid driver’s licence is included in the requirements.
The department’s general instructions state that people with disabilities receive preference and are exempt from the driver’s-licence requirement. This specific exemption should be read together with the vacancy requirements; it does not remove the qualification and experience requirements.
Applicants need basic knowledge of supply-chain duties and practices, computer operation, data capture and statistics collection. Knowledge of Public Service legislation and the relevant work procedures is also required. Computer literacy includes Microsoft Office, Word, Excel, PowerPoint and email. Planning, teamwork, interpersonal skills and verbal and written communication are listed competencies.
Asset and procurement responsibilities
- Maintain asset records and databases, verify the asset register, issue furniture and equipment, and identify redundant or unusable assets for disposal.
- Maintain supplier and contractor records, register suppliers on LOGIS or a similar system and obtain quotations.
- Capture specifications on the purchasing system, place orders and issue or receive bid documents.
- Support bid consideration and contract-conclusion processes with secretarial or logistical work and draft documents.
Logistics, filing and archiving duties
The clerk will receive and check goods from suppliers, record goods in the appropriate registers, process requests from end users and issue goods. Maintaining goods and supplier registers is part of this support function.
The role also covers opening and closing files under the record-classification system, storage, tracing and retrieval of records and completion of file index cards. For archiving or disposal, the clerk scans documents, sorts and packages files, prepares lists and sends the relevant information to the supervisor. These records responsibilities are separate from the physical control of assets.

Applications must be submitted strictly online through the Gauteng jobs portal. No postal or hand-delivered applications are accepted.

What shortlisted candidates should expect
The department specifies two pre-entry assessments for shortlisted candidates: a practical exercise relevant to the post and an integrity or ethical-conduct assessment. These assessment results are included in the interview process.
Correspondence is limited to shortlisted candidates. If no contact is received within three months of the closing date, the department says applicants should regard the application as unsuccessful. Senior-management certificates described elsewhere in the departmental notes apply to SMS posts, not automatically to this administrative-clerk vacancy.
