Click Learning is tackling South Africa’s education crisis with smart, scalable solutions that make a real difference. We deliver interactive online programmes that boost literacy, numeracy, and digital skills for primary school learners in under-resourced communities. By combining technology with on-the-ground support, we’re helping children build the foundations they need for long-term success and to build sustainable livelihoods. As a secondary outcome, we create jobs for previously unemployed youth to support in the schools and provide them with skills development to move onto better employment opportunities. We’re growing—and we’re looking for people who want their work to matter. Click Learning is one of the leading EdTech organisations in Africa. With rapid growth over the past few years and now maturing as an organisation, Click reaches over 235,000 learners in 316 schools, with over 23,000 devices under management, overseeing 1,000+ youth facilitators and 85 core staff in 4 head offices.

We are looking for a detail-oriented Financial Administrator to own the day-to-day transactional engine of our finance function. This is a hands-on role for someone who takes pride in accuracy, thrives on process, and is comfortable working across payables, receivables, cashbook, and reconciliations in a fast-moving environment.
