Remote Recruitment is hiring an Insurance Administrator for a UK employer, fully remote from South Africa.

Role overview

You will work 09:00-17:00 UK time (11:00-19:00 SAST) from home, with equipment guidance, a proper induction and a manager who is contactable through the day. This is a permanent role, not a short contract.

* Chase outstanding documentation and premiums
* Support brokers with quotes and market submissions

* Experience with a broking or policy system such as Acturis, Open GI or similar
* Strong accuracy with policy wordings, dates and premiums
* Clear written English for client and insurer correspondence
* Reliable home internet and a quiet space for UK-hours work
Nice to have
* Exposure to commercial lines as well as personal lines
* Progress towards a Cert CII qualification
* Familiarity with FCA conduct requirements
What's on offer

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.
