The Problem We Saw
South Africa has a wealth of talent, but too often, people struggle to find work not because they lack skills, but because they lack access. We saw people being charged hundreds of Rands for a CV that was poorly formatted and difficult to read. We saw them paying for outdated career advice or being sent on wild goose chases for non-existent jobs.
We realised that the barrier to entry wasn't a lack of ambition or talent, but a lack of a free, accessible, and high-quality toolkit. A CV is your first handshake, and in a country where unemployment is a major challenge, that handshake needs to be firm and professional.
Our Mission & Our Promises
We built Easy-CV with a single mission: to empower South African job seekers by providing them with the essential tools they need to take their first step towards a better future. Everything we do is guided by these promises:
- It’s 100% Free: We will never charge you to create a CV, download it as a PDF, or use our job board. Our goal is to remove financial barriers, not create them.
- It’s Simple & Effective: Our platform is designed to be simple enough for someone who has never used a computer before, yet powerful enough to create a truly professional CV.
- It’s Honest Work: The jobs on our Easy-Jobs board are real, current vacancies from employers we trust. No ghost listings, no outdated posts.
- It’s Accessible to All: We are actively partnering with libraries, NPOs, and internet cafés in townships and rural areas to ensure that even those without personal computers or data can access the tools they need to build their future.

Kenny Seepe
Easy-CV was founded by Kenny Seepe, a dedicated South African tech professional who recognized the need for a truly free and effective job seeker toolkit.
Kenny holds a Bachelor of Computer Science degree from Stellenbosch University. He brings over 10 years of corporate experience in high-stakes environments, having worked as a Lead Software Architect and Data Analyst for major financial technology firms in Cape Town and Johannesburg.

The Easy-Jobs Board: Connecting Talent to Opportunity
A professional CV is only half the journey; the other half is finding a place to send it. That’s why we built the Easy-Jobs Board to be an integrated and trusted part of the Easy-CV ecosystem.
What Makes Easy-Jobs Different?
Our job board is built with the specific needs of the South African market in mind, focusing on quality and accessibility:
- Local Focus: We feature thousands of current job listings from companies and verified recruitment agencies across all nine provinces of South Africa, from entry-level to executive roles.
- Verified Listings: We actively filter out scams and outdated posts. Our goal is to connect you with real, honest work that genuinely leads to employment.
- Seamless Application: Once you've created your professional CV using our builder, applying for a relevant job on our board is fast and simple.
- Filtering for Success: Our search tools allow you to filter jobs by location, industry, salary expectation, and employment type (full-time, part-time, contract), helping you cut through the noise.
By providing both the tool to create the CV and the platform to submit it, we close the gap between ambition and opportunity, accelerating the job search for every user.
This is Just the Beginning
Today, thousands of people have used Easy-CV to create a professional CV, to find a job, or to help a family member take their next step. But we're just getting started. Our long-term vision is to build an ecosystem of empowerment offering interview preparation guides, career advice, and connecting job seekers with mentorship opportunities.
This platform is more than just code; it's a movement built on a simple, powerful belief: that talent is everywhere, but opportunity is not. We're here to change that, one CV at a time. Thank you for being part of the story. Let's keep building, together.
