Voy
Treatment Specialists - South Africa
Job description
Our Weight Loss team is growing and we're hiring a Registered Dietitian/Nutritionist to join us as a Treatment Specialist. This is a predominantly weekend-based role — shifts cover both Saturday and Sunday, plus 1 to 2 weekdays, so please only apply if that works for you.
As a Treatment Specialist, you'll play a central role in ensuring patients are safely and effectively assessed for GLP-1 weight management treatment, delivering high-quality video consultations and patient support across digital channels.
What you'll do
•
Conduct BMI verification consultations for patients applying for GLP-1 weight management treatment via video call. You should be comfortable being on video calls for the majority of your working day.
•
Provide thorough patient education on the risks, benefits, and expected outcomes of treatment.
•
When appropriate, screen for disordered eating and conduct eating disorder assessments as part of the consultation process.
•
Educate patients on side effects to monitor and when to seek clinical support whilst on GLP-1 medication.
•
Work closely with the wider clinical and customer support teams to ensure safe, effective practice.
•
There may be scope to support our live chat ticket queue as a secondary responsibility.
The details
•
Initially a 12-month fixed-term contractor position.
•
Fully remote within South Africa. You'll need your own laptop and a quiet, private space from which to conduct video consultations, and stable internet connection.
•
37.5 hours per week across 3–4 days, including both Saturday and Sunday, within an 8am–8pm UK window. Example patterns:
•
Fri / Sat / Sun / Mon: 3 × 9.5hr shifts + 1 × 9hr shift
•
Sat / Sun + Fri or Mon: 3 × 12.5hr shifts
•
We're also open to discussing arrangements of fewer than 37.5 hours per week, provided Saturday, Sunday, and Friday or Monday covered.
•
Applicants must be based in South Africa with the right to work in SA, and registered with the HPCSA.
What we need from you
•
Registered Dietitian or Nutritionist registered with the HPCSA (essential).
•
Available to work every Saturday and Sunday, plus 1–2 weekdays.
•
Comfortable conducting back-to-back video consultations for extended periods.
•
Experience in clinical assessment and patient education.
•
Familiarity with or willingness to develop knowledge of GLP-1 medications.
•
Strong written and verbal English skills — all patients are UK-based, so clear communication is essential.
•
Proactive, adaptable, and able to work effectively as part of a remote team.
What we offer
•
Flexibility — work across a condensed 3–4 day schedule, giving you extended time off during the week.
•
Fully remote — work from home.
•
Competitive salary
•
Meaningful work — play a direct role in patient care within a fast-growing, clinically led weight loss programme.
