Job Overview
Rainbow Chicken is looking for an organised and reliable Admin Clerk – BL to provide comprehensive administrative support at its Rustenburg Processing Plant. The role is focused on helping ensure the smooth operation of the processing plant through accurate data collection, reporting, administration and coordination.
The successful candidate will work closely with production teams and managers, collecting and consolidating operational information and preparing reports used to monitor production performance. Because much of the role involves production figures, yields, efficiencies, stock information and performance against targets, accuracy and attention to detail are essential.
The Admin Clerk will be responsible for collecting production data on an hourly basis and using this information to prepare morning production reports for start-up meetings. The position will also involve preparing daily summaries, calculating line efficiencies and shift yields, monitoring stock exceptions and holding-room stock, and reporting on production giveaways.
The role requires someone who is comfortable working with numbers and large amounts of information while maintaining confidentiality and meeting reporting deadlines. Strong Microsoft Office skills, particularly Excel, are important, along with good organisational and time-management abilities.
The successful candidate should also be able to work independently while collaborating effectively with Process Leaders, production managers, finance teams and other stakeholders.

- Compiling data and reports on production “giveaways” for different departments.
- Updating daily production department reports for weekly and monthly KPIs.

- Compiling daily tertiary yield reports.
- Preparing the PCS report and other applicable information for the Finance Team and Production Managers.
- Updating the Processing Cube on the intranet within the required shift deadlines.
- Using Bestime as required.
- Assisting Process Leaders with employee leave scheduling.
- Assisting with scheduling employees for annual medical induction.
- Performing other administrative duties required to support the Processing Plant.

Skills and Competencies
This position requires strong numerical and administrative ability, particularly because the successful candidate will work extensively with production data and performance reports.
