Work for the world.
From right here.
Build your career with leading global companies while working remotely. Keep your pay competitive, work in senior roles that are in high demand internationally, and enjoy career growth — supported by a SA team that manages cross-border admin for you.
Your career, amplified.
Remote work has opened the world’s best companies to South African talent, and GrowTeams is how you reach them. We handle the admin, so you can focus on doing great work for an international team.
Work for the world’s best
Do real, valued work for leading international companies, from home in South Africa. Gain global exposure, lose the commute.
Meant to last
We place people in long-term roles, not short-term gigs. Expect a placement you grow in for years, not months.
A career that compounds
International experience accelerates everything, building a CV that stands out alongside teams working to a global standard.
Become Ai-ready
Complete our core Ai training and stay sharp as the tools evolve, building skills that make you more valuable wherever your career goes.
Earn at your level
Local budgets can’t fund the senior role you’re qualified for. Land that role and step into the responsibility and fair pay that come with it.
Never on your own
A clear agreement, structured to suit your role, plus a local contact in GrowTeams that backs you throughout.
Real contracts. Reliable pay.
We’ve placed 150+ South African professionals with international companies since 2022. If you’ve learned to be cautious about offers like ours, that instinct is a good one. Here’s how it works, so you can see for yourself.
Properly contracted
You join on a clear, formal agreement (employment or contractor), so your role, pay and terms are documented from day one in line with South Africa’s labour laws.
Paid on time, in rand
Your salary lands reliably each month in rand, into your South African account. No chasing, no foreign-currency risk, no surprises.
A local team behind you
GrowTeams is run by both South Africans and international team members. You have a real point of contact here, not a faceless portal.
Free to apply
We’re paid by the companies we place you with, never by you. No sign-up fees and no placement charges to you.

Questions applicants ask first.
How and in what currency am I paid?
You’re paid a competitive, market-related South African salary in rand, straight into your local account. There’s no foreign-currency risk to you.
Am I an employee or a contractor?
Either, depending on the role. Every placement is on a clear, formal agreement that sets out your role, pay and terms from the start, so you always know where you stand.
Is there any cost to me?
None. It’s free to apply, interview and take part in every stage of our process. We’re paid by the companies we place you with, never by you.
What hours will I work?
Most of our companies are in the UK and Europe, just 1 to 2 hours ahead of South Africa, so you’ll typically work normal South African daytime hours. If a role needs different hours, that’s made clear upfront in the job listing.
What equipment do I need?
A laptop, a working camera and microphone, a stable internet connection and a quiet, well-lit space. That’s enough to do most remote roles well.
What is the Ai training?
Every GrowTeams professional completes our core Ai training before starting a role. It keeps your skills current as the tools evolve and makes you more valuable wherever your career goes, at no cost to you.
How does the application process work?
You apply with your CV, and then complete a short assessment and a recorded video interview in your own time, on our GrowTalent platform. Our team reviews every one personally, and surface the best-suited candidates to the hiring company for their final decision.
Will I hear back either way?
Yes, always. Every candidate deserves a response. We’ll let you know by email at whichever stage your outcome is decided, whether you’re moving forward or not.
What happens if a placement ends?
If a role comes to an end, you’re welcome to be matched to another opportunity that fits your skills. We place people for the long term, and we stay involved to support you throughout. As our network grows, more and more roles become available.
