How Remote Work is Opening Global Doors for South Africans!!!

Loading player...
South Africa’s unemployment crisis remains one of the biggest challenges facing our country. The statistics are heartbreaking, with millions of capable and talented South Africans struggling to find meaningful work.

But alongside the challenges, new ideas are emerging that help connect local talent with global opportunities in ways that were almost impossible just a few years ago.

This week on Good Things with Brent Lindeque, we chat with South African entrepreneur Anton van Heerden about how he is helping South Africans work for international companies while staying right here at home. Through his company, DNA Employer of Record (DNA EOR), Anton is creating pathways for skilled South Africans to access global careers, earn international currencies, and still live on home soil.

Anton’s career is deeply rooted in South Africa’s growth story. He built and led VIP Payroll, which was later acquired by Sage, where he spent more than 20 years leading a multinational team before launching DNA EOR. His mission is simple: help South Africans access global opportunities safely, compliantly, and without ever having to leave home.

The idea is powerful. Instead of relocating abroad to find international work, South Africans can now effectively become “digital nomads” in their own country, working remotely for global companies while remaining connected to their families, communities and the place they call home.
