It’s back to square one in the search for a permanent senior manager at SA Revenue Service in Cape Town.
The region has now been without a full-time Sars regional manager for close on two years.
“There is an acting manager in place, who is not resident in Cape Town, but it’s concerning that they are seemingly struggling to fill this position,” said a source who told FTW that attempts to appoint someone had failed and that the entire process had begun from scratch.
Sars spokesman Sandile Memela confirmed this, saying a candidate had been identified.
“The candidate has declined our offer, notwithstanding all attempts on our part to convince the individual otherwise,” he said. “In view of this, the position was re-advertised last week and the recruitment process is being expedited given its urgency. In the meantime, the same acting executive, Henson Msongweni, will continue to oversee customs operations in the Western Cape.”
