🇿🇦 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 Sales Representative to work remotely for a UK-based business. You will own a pipeline from first contact through to close, speaking to prospects daily and turning interest into signed business. This is a full-time, 100% remote role working 09:00-17:00 UK time (11:00-19:00 SAST) from anywhere in South Africa.

You will be selling to UK decision-makers, so clear spoken English and a confident phone manner matter more than a long CV. If you enjoy conversations, follow-up and hitting a number, this will suit you.

Key responsibilities
* Run outbound calls and emails to warm and cold prospects each day
* Qualify leads and book discovery calls with decision-makers
* Manage your pipeline in the CRM and keep records accurate and current
* Present the service, handle objections and close smaller deals directly
* Hand over larger opportunities to senior sales with clean notes
* Report on activity and conversion each week

What you will need
* Experience with outbound or inbound sales, ideally B2B
* Clear, professional spoken and written English
* Familiarity with a CRM such as HubSpot, Pipedrive or Salesforce
* Comfort with a daily call target and steady follow-up
* A reliable fibre or LTE connection, a working laptop and a quiet space

What is on offer
* A single monthly salary of R29 000, paid on time
* Fully remote work with no commute and no office politics
* Long-term placement with one UK employer, not short contracts
* Structured onboarding and ongoing support from the Remote Recruitment team
* Real exposure to the UK market and room to grow into senior sales

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.
