ZDFin (Pty) invites recently andmitted attorneys to apply for Junior Attorney Positions.
Location: Paulshof, Johannesburg, Gauteng & Durbanville, Cape Town, Western Cape – South Africa
Vacancy: Junior Attorney x 2
Job Type: Full-Time
Closing Date: Not Specified
We are seeking two (2) Junior Attorneys to join our in-house litigation team – one candidate for Johannesburg (Paulshof) and another for our Cape Town (Durbanville) branch.
About ZDFin:
ZDFin is a specialist finance company providing smart solutions for residential juristic entities, these commonly referred to as ‘Complexes’ but legally being ‘Schemes’, as defined.
The legal definition of Schemes incorporates Sectional Title Bodies Corporate, Home Owners’ Associations and Share Block companies.
The now ‘not-so-new’ legislation that came into effect in October 2016, has finally given some financial direction to schemes (previously left largely to the discretion of trustees and directors), especially insofar as budgeting is concerned.
The practical reality remains that schemes typically under-budget and seldom do cash flow budgets, taking arrears and debtor balances into account, not to mention the legal costs necessary to pursue. As such, schemes are still challenged in raising adequate reserves to fund large maintenance and capital projects, which may or may not form part of their now legally required 10-year Maintenance Repair and Replacement Plans which give direction to the reserve levy and associated surpluses.
Role Requirements:
- LLB degree from a recognised university.
- Recently admitted attorney with a minimum of 2 years’ experience.
- Excellent communication and negotiation skills.
- Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities.
- Ability to work independently and manage multiple cases simultaneously while jumping in to assist the team as and where required.
- Candidates must have experience in general litigation, debt collection, property foreclosures, levy collection, experience in Community Schemes (Sectional Title Schemes and Home Owners Associations), contract drafting etc.
- Support the group in managing cases, preparing legal documentation, drafting contracts, and conducting research.
- Candidate will be required to travel nationally to attend meetings with external attorneys and clients (Trustees and managing agents) to build and maintain strong relationships with clients, providing them with clear updates on the levy collection and legal action taken.
- Must be in possession of a valid drivers licence and a reliable vehicle.
- This is an in-office position.
