Are you looking for a new challenge in your career?
At Decusatio Human Capital Solutions, we continue to see encouraging signs of hiring activity returning across several sectors in South Africa. From finance and technology to marketing and commercial leadership roles, businesses are cautiously rebuilding teams as economic momentum begins to improve.
For employers, this shift reinforces an important reality: securing the right talent early can be a significant competitive advantage. For job seekers, it means fresh opportunities are emerging — often in highly specialised roles where skills shortages remain pronounced.
As a specialist recruitment partner, we work closely with both organisations and professionals to ensure the right match is made at the right time. Below are some of the featured roles currently circulating within our network.
Chief of Staff – Gauteng
This is a hybrid role (approximately 2 days in office but includes event attendance). Ideally we are looking for somebody who has Executive Assistant experience to support our management team. Importantly, this is not a secretarial / admin role – we are looking for somebody to help us drive operational effectiveness of a team through a combination of empathy and accountability metrics. There will also be potential for event management / planning.
Must have some degree of tech-savvy (HubSpot, functional Excel, PowerPoint / Canva, LinkedIn) and enjoy being in people environments where they network / represent the company.
Strongish English written and spoken and comfortable to pick up phone and talk to people.
Salary estimate: R18k with incentives.
Please reach out to us for further info.
Youth Programmes Administrator – Gauteng

- Front-line screening / recruitment
- Engagement with host sites
- Programme administration / reporting
- Development of young grads in the early stages of their careers

Salary Estimate: R9k with potential for incentives
SME.Tax Sales Support – Gauteng
This is a role for somebody who does not believe that work involves sitting behind a laptop sending e-mail.
