Job Description

Remote World connects South African talent with UK employers — and this Lead Generation Specialist role is a fully remote opportunity to build pipelines, open doors, and have a real impact on a growing UK business.

About the Role

You'll be responsible for identifying and qualifying new business leads, reaching out to prospects, and warming them up for the sales team.

* Conduct outbound calls and send emails to introduce the company and qualify interest
* Log all activity accurately in the CRM and update lead status after each contact
* Meet weekly and monthly targets for calls made and qualified leads passed to sales
* Work closely with the sales team to refine messaging based on prospect feedback
* Keep up to date with the business's services and target market
What You'll Need
* Experience with outbound calling, lead generation, or business development outreach
* Confidence communicating with business decision-makers by phone and email
* Familiarity with CRM tools (e.g. HubSpot, Salesforce, or similar)
* Good written English and a professional phone manner
* A driven, goal-oriented approach and the ability to self-manage in a remote setting
What's on Offer
* R15,000–R20,000 per month (plus performance incentives)
* Fully remote — work from anywhere in South Africa
* Working hours: 09:00–17:00 UK time (11:00–19:00 SAST)
* A role where results are recognised and rewarded

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.
