Remote Recruitment · Remote · South Africa

Salary: R29 000 - R32 000 per month

Remote Recruitment is hiring a Document Controller for a UK employer, fully remote from South Africa.

Role overview

You will be the single source of truth for project and company documentation: naming, versioning, issuing and archiving so nobody works from the wrong drawing or the wrong revision. It suits someone precise who dislikes ambiguity.

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

  • Maintain the document register and control all revisions
  • Issue documents to internal teams and external parties on schedule
  • Enforce naming, numbering and filing conventions
  • Track approvals and keep a clean audit trail
  • Archive superseded documents and manage retention
  • Support audits with complete, retrievable records

What you'll need

  • Two or more years in document control, records or project administration
  • Experience with a document system such as SharePoint, Aconex or Viewpoint
  • Strong attention to version detail and naming discipline
  • Clear written English for issuing and chasing approvals
  • Reliable home internet and a quiet space for UK-hours work

Nice to have

  • Exposure to ISO 9001 or similar quality standards
  • Experience in construction, engineering or energy projects
  • Familiarity with CAD drawing registers

What's on offer

A permanent, fully remote role with defined procedures, a supportive project lead and genuine ownership of the document set. Strong controllers progress into project administration or quality roles.
