Receptionist; Medical | Afrikaans Speaking

Upmarket Medical Clinic (just out of Sandton)

An established, highly regarded medical clinic are seeking a polished and experienced Medical Receptionist to join their close-knit, professional team.

This is not a standard front-desk role.

This practice supports patients through deeply personal and emotional journeys. The person at reception is often the first voice they hear and the first face they see — which means warmth, composure, emotional intelligence, and quiet confidence are absolutely essential.

We are looking for someone who understands the pace and standards of a busy medical environment and who takes pride in running a front desk seamlessly and professionally.

The Role:

• Welcoming and assisting patients with empathy and discretion
• Managing a high-volume appointment diary with accuracy
• Liaising with doctors, nursing staff, and laboratory teams
• Handling sensitive patient information confidentially
• Processing payments and medical aid queries
• Ensuring the reception area reflects the calm, premium standard of the practice

What We’re Looking For:

• Proven experience as a medical receptionist (specialist practice experience advantageous)
• Strong administrative ability and attention to detail
• Professional presentation and confident communication skills
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced, emotionally sensitive environment
• Able to manage pressure with grace and maturity
• Stable work history
• Own transport a must
• Ideally the ability to speak fluent Afrikaans

The Salary will be commensurate with experience and current earnings. Candidates with salary requirements of up to R20 000 Cost to Company will be considered. Offers at the discretion of the hiring company.

Working hours are 7am start every day. 2 days a week you work until 5pm, 1 day a week you work until 4pm, 1 day a week you work until 3pm and on a Friday you work until 2pm.

This role suits someone who is established in their career, confident in their abilities, and who enjoys being the steady, capable anchor of a busy practice.

If you take pride in professionalism, understand the importance of discretion, and are looking to align yourself with a respected, high-end medical practice — we would love to hear from you
