Durban University of Technology (DUT) is located on the warm east coast of South Africa. It sprawls over seven (7) campuses in tropical and picturesque Durban, and in Pietermaritzburg, with its undulating hills that flow over from the Drakensberg Mountain.According to our ENVISION2030 strategy, DUT's DNA has two strands, namely 'people-centred and engaged' and 'innovative and entrepreneurial'. These are interwoven intrinsically by a number of double pairs consisting of 'values and principles' that bind our double-helix together. The extrinsic expression of our DNA is via The DUT-Way; which demonstrates our collective character and behaviour.The University's ultimate goal is to contribute towards improving the lives and livelihoods of all its people, both internal and external. DUT consistently strives towards excellence and greatness in teaching-learning and in research-innovation; something that has been recognized recently when The Times Higher Education's World University Rankings placed DUT within the top 500 of universities in the world and within the top 5 universities in South Africa. The enactment of these internationally recognized strengths is demonstrated in our impactful engagement internally and externally in service of our localities, the region and the country at large.FINANCEPost – Accountant Student Finance X3Reference Numbers – 20001724 / 20001725 / 20001726Minimum RequirementsB Degree in Accounting or equivalent qualification (NQF level 7).3 – 5 years' experience in revenue and account receivable management.Knowledge of tertiary fee planning and administration.Knowledge of Accounting Standards and practices.Knowledge of relevant legislation such as the National Debt Collection Act, NSFAS Act (Act 56 of 1999), National Credit Act (Act 34 of 2005), constitutional institutions, and public entities.Knowledge of the Vat Act.Proficiency in MS Office.Knowledge of student liaison practices.Communication skills.Institutional knowledge of Higher Education environment.Knowledge of financial policies and procedures.Knowledge of student registration targets process and student fee collection plans/targets.Knowledge of the business environment, the relevant role players within the business and their key responsibilities and outcomes.Sound knowledge of the relevant legislation applicable to the collection of, Higher Education Act.Sound knowledge of the current and future practices in the business area to apply to the best interest of the Institution.Summary Of DutiesBilling, Credit and Debt Collection ManagementSpecial Funding, Study Assistance and BursariesStudent Debtors' ControlStakeholder RelationsReportingContact Person: Miss LV MakhanyaStatus of Position: PermanentSalary: Market RelatedTo ApplyPlease complete application form downloadable from DUT careers portal and send together with detailed CV, copies of ID, qualifications, and a covering letter.
