What you'll need
Experience in compliance, quality or governance administration
Strong document control and version management habits
Confident tracking deadlines across many owners
Clear written English for policy and audit documentation
Discretion when handling sensitive material
Nice to have
Exposure to ISO standards or a regulated UK sector
Experience with a compliance or GRC platform
Understanding of GDPR or data protection record-keeping
What's on offer
100% remote, working from anywhere in South Africa
UK business hours, 09:00–17:00 UK time (11:00–19:00 SAST)
Direct exposure to an established UK business
Long-term, stable placement with room to grow
