Medical Receptionist

Medical Receptionist

Southern Suburbs, Cape Town | Start Date: March 2027

Are you a naturally organised, service-orientated individual who takes pride in creating a welcoming and professional experience for patients?

An established Specialist is preparing to move practices within Cape Town’s Southern Suburbs and is looking to appoint a capable, personable Medical Receptionist who will play an integral role in the smooth day-to-day running of the practice.

This is an opportunity for someone who is not simply looking to manage a reception desk, but who can take ownership of the administrative and patient-facing aspects of the practice, ensuring that everything runs efficiently and that patients feel welcomed, valued and well looked after.

The ideal candidate will bring:

• Previous experience in an administrative capacity within a medical practice or a similar healthcare environment.

• A strong level of computer literacy, with experience in an electronic or paperless practice environment being a distinct advantage.

• A Matric certificate - this is an essential requirement.

• An excellent command of the English language, both written and verbal.

• A mature, considered and professional approach, with the confidence and initiative to manage the practice on the Specialist’s behalf.

• A warm, accommodating and service-driven personality, with a genuine appreciation for patient care.

• Strong organisational skills and the ability to manage appointments, patient enquiries, administrative processes and daily workflow efficiently.

• The ability to remain calm, composed and professional while managing competing priorities and ensuring a seamless patient journey.

A valid driver’s licence and own reliable transport would be preferred.

We are looking for someone who understands that the patient experience begins long before a consultation and continues well beyond it. You will be the welcoming face and organisational backbone of the practice - someone who anticipates needs, takes ownership, communicates confidently and ensures that both patients and the Specialist are well supported.

If you are a polished, capable and personable individual who enjoys working with people and thrives in a well-organised, technology-enabled environment, we would love to hear from you.

All job postings are in accordance with our Client's BEE requirements.
