Best time to meet between Melbourne and Cape Town

Plan around 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM in Melbourne, which is 8:00 AM to 10:00 AM in Cape Town, to catch everyone during office hours. Cape Town is 8 hours behind Melbourne, so common hours are scarce (about 2 hours). Lock the slot, keep it short, and follow up in writing. Don't be caught out by clock changes — Melbourne observes daylight saving and Cape Town doesn't, so the offset varies by an hour through the year.
