Job Description

You'll sell cover that families really use, from a personal loans branch in Pietermaritzburg. If you like clear targets and knowing where you stand, this is for you.

The site is in Pietermaritzburg; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying. Start is planned for the beginning of next month.

What your day looks like

  • Follow up on quotes sent and chase missing documents.
  • Treat clients fairly under TCF rules and never oversell.
  • Save policies when clients call to cancel.
  • Track daily sales, conversions and lapse rates on the team board.
  • Explain waiting periods, exclusions and premiums in plain terms.
  • Keep your record of advice complete for compliance audits.

Must-haves

  • FAIS fit and proper: clean credit and criminal record
  • You are comfortable earning a large part of your pay in commission
  • Matric, including Maths or Maths Literacy
  • Credits toward a recognised FSCA qualification, or willing to start
  • RE5 passed, or willing to write it within the first year

What's in it for you

  • CPD hours logged and funded
  • Basic salary plus uncapped commission
  • Monthly sales competitions with cash prizes

How to apply

  1. Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
  2. Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: consent form for credit and criminal checks plus your matric results, certified.
  3. Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
  4. Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 10 working days.

How2Apply recruits for this position on behalf of hiring employers around Pietermaritzburg; 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.

Tips to get shortlisted

  • Read up on the product line (funeral, short-term or life) so you can talk about it in the interview.
  • Check your credit record before you apply, because a judgment or default will stop your FAIS appointment.
