Remote Recruitment
🇿🇦 Hirezar Summary for South African Applicants
This fully remote full time position at Remote Recruitment is open to applicants from South Africa. As a remote position, you can work from anywhere in South Africa — whether you're based in Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban, or a smaller town.
Job Description
Salary: R29 000 per month
Remote Recruitment is hiring a Billing Administrator for a UK-based employer. The role is fully remote from South Africa, working 09:00–17:00 UK time (11:00–19:00 SAST).
Role overview
You will own the billing cycle end to end — raising invoices, checking they match contracts, chasing what is outstanding and keeping the ledger clean. It is detailed work where accuracy matters more than speed, and you will deal directly with UK customers when queries come up. The finance team is small, so you will see the whole picture rather than one narrow slice of it.
Key responsibilities
* Raise and issue customer invoices on schedule, checking rates against contracts
* Reconcile billing records against payments received and flag discrepancies
* Handle billing queries from UK customers by email and phone
* Chase overdue accounts politely and escalate persistent non-payers
* Process credit notes, refunds and adjustments with proper approval
* Prepare monthly billing reports and support the month-end close
What you will need
* Two or more years in billing, invoicing, accounts receivable or credit control
* Experience with accounting software such as Xero, Sage, QuickBooks or NetSuite
* Confident with Excel or Google Sheets, including lookups and pivot tables
* A careful eye for detail and comfort querying numbers that look wrong
* Clear written and spoken English for customer-facing correspondence
What is on offer
* A steady monthly salary, paid reliably
* 100% remote — work from anywhere in South Africa
* UK business hours with a clear month-end rhythm
* Long-term placement with a UK employer, supported by Remote Recruitment throughout
If you like getting the numbers right and want dependable remote work, we would like to hear from you.
Tips for South African Applicants
Timezone Advantage
South Africa (SAST, UTC+2) overlaps well with European business hours and has a few hours of overlap with US East Coast. Mention your timezone flexibility in your application.
Salary in Context
Even without a listed salary, international remote roles typically pay 2-3x more than equivalent local positions in South Africa due to the exchange rate advantage.
Application Tips
Tailor your CV to international standards — use a clean format, highlight remote work experience, and include your English proficiency. Many SA applicants succeed by emphasising their strong work ethic and cultural adaptability.
Load Shedding Preparedness
If you're applying for a remote role, having a backup power solution (UPS, inverter, or generator) and mobile data as a backup internet connection shows employers you're prepared for South Africa's infrastructure challenges.
