Remote Recruitment is hiring a Call Centre Agent for a UK-based employer, fully remote from South Africa. You'll own inbound and outbound calls for a UK customer base, resolving queries on the first contact.

Role overview

You will be the voice of a UK business on the phone. You will handle a steady flow of customer calls, log every interaction and make sure each caller leaves with an answer or a clear next step. Full training on the client's systems and products is provided in your first weeks. You will work UK hours, 09:00–17:00 UK (11:00–19:00 SAST), Monday to Friday.

You will join the client's existing team from day one, with a named manager in the UK, regular check-ins over video call and clear goals so you always know how you are doing.

Key responsibilities

  • Handle inbound calls about orders, accounts and service queries
  • Make scheduled outbound follow-up calls
  • Log every call accurately in the CRM
  • Resolve issues on the first call where possible and escalate the rest
  • Meet call quality and response-time targets

What you'll need

  • At least 1 year in a call centre or phone-based customer service role
  • Experience logging calls in a CRM or ticketing system such as Salesforce or Zendesk
  • Clear spoken and written English suited to UK customers
  • Reliable home internet, a headset and a quiet workspace
  • Availability for UK hours, Monday to Friday

Nice to have

  • Experience supporting UK customers
  • Familiarity with telephony platforms such as RingCentral or Aircall

What's on offer

  • 100% remote: work from home anywhere in South Africa
  • Fixed UK hours with weekends off
  • A long-term, full-time role with a UK employer
  • Support from the Remote Recruitment team from application through onboarding
  • Hands-on experience with UK clients and systems
