Remote Recruitment is hiring a Expenses Administrator for a UK-based employer, fully remote from South Africa.

Role overview

You will process and check UK staff expense claims, keeping spend accurate, compliant and reimbursed on time. This is a hands-on role where accuracy and follow-through matter every day, and you will be trusted to work independently without being chased.

You will work UK business hours (09:00–17:00 UK, 11:00–19:00 SAST) from home, as part of a South African team placed directly with established UK employers. Remote Recruitment supports you from placement onwards.

Key responsibilities

  • Check expense claims against receipts and company policy
  • Code expenses correctly in the accounting system
  • Chase missing receipts and clarify queries with claimants
  • Prepare reimbursement batches for approval
  • Report monthly spend trends to the finance team

What you'll need

  • Experience processing expenses in Expensify, Xero or similar
  • Good Excel skills
  • Attention to detail with receipts and coding
  • Clear, polite written communication
  • Comfort working to payroll and month-end deadlines

Nice to have

  • Familiarity with Dext or Fyle
  • Experience with VAT on expenses
  • Corporate card reconciliation

What's on offer

  • R23 000 – R25 000 per month, paid monthly
  • 100% remote, working UK hours
  • Long-term role with a UK employer and ongoing support from Remote Recruitment
  • Clear onboarding and a team that wants you to succeed
