Remote Recruitment is hiring an Order Processing Administrator for a UK employer, fully remote from South Africa.
Role overview
You will take orders from arrival to despatch: entering them accurately, allocating stock, confirming dates and telling customers early when something will be late. It suits someone quick, accurate and comfortable with volume.
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.
Key responsibilities

* Allocate stock and confirm delivery dates
* Resolve pricing, quantity and address discrepancies before despatch
* Coordinate with warehouse and courier teams on despatch
* Proactively update customers on delays or part shipments

What you'll need
* Experience in order processing, sales administration or data entry
* Familiarity with an ERP or order system such as SAP, NetSuite, Sage or Unleashed
* Fast, accurate keyboard work with a low error rate
* Clear written English for customer confirmations
* Reliable home internet and a quiet space for UK-hours work
Nice to have
* Exposure to e-commerce or wholesale order flows
* Experience with courier booking portals
* Familiarity with stock and inventory basics
What's on offer
A permanent, fully remote role with clear daily targets, a supportive supervisor and steady, predictable work. Strong administrators move into sales support or inventory roles.

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 β 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.
