Job Description

Selling to companies takes patience; at this courier and freight company in Johannesburg CBD, big deals are worth the wait. This is a good step for someone who wants proper routine and a manager who notices good work.

Build quotes and proposals with correct pricing and margins.
Chase overdue accounts with the credit department before they grow.
Attend trade shows and industry breakfasts to meet buyers.
Visit key accounts monthly and check how the service is going.
Book and run discovery meetings with buyers and procurement managers.
Forecast monthly sales and report pipeline value each Monday.
Prospect new companies by phone, LinkedIn and walk-ins in business parks.

How2Apply recruits for this position on behalf of hiring employers around Johannesburg CBD; applications go into our talent pool and shortlisted candidates are introduced directly.

How2Apply never charges you to apply, for training, for uniforms or for a "placement fee". If anyone asks you for money, it is a scam.

How to stand out

Prepare a 30-60-90 day plan for the territory and bring it to the second interview.
Show target versus actual for each of your last three years; B2B managers skip CVs without numbers.
