Job Description

Selling to companies takes patience; at this business internet provider in Roodepoort, big deals are worth the wait. This is a good step for someone who wants proper routine and a manager who notices good work.

You'll be based at a business internet provider in Roodepoort. Living nearby, or on a taxi route to it, really helps.

What you'll actually do

  • Attend trade shows and industry breakfasts to meet buyers.
  • Prospect new companies by phone, LinkedIn and walk-ins in business parks.
  • Book and run discovery meetings with buyers and procurement managers.
  • Visit key accounts monthly and check how the service is going.
  • Log every lead, meeting and deal stage in the CRM.
  • Build quotes and proposals with correct pricing and margins.

You'll need

  • Valid driver's licence and your own reliable car
  • Solid presentation and negotiation skills
  • You close deals, not just collect meetings
  • Confident with Excel, Outlook and a CRM
  • Resilient enough to handle long sales cycles and rejection

Helpful, not essential

  • A technical trade or engineering background for sales engineer roles
  • Salesforce, Zoho or HubSpot CRM experience

What you get

  • Pension fund and medical aid contributions
  • Car allowance and fuel card
  • Annual incentive trip for top performers
  • Basic plus monthly commission on gross profit

How to apply

  1. Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
  2. Keep copies of these ready to send: a recently certified ID copy (within 3 months), proof of past sales performance, such as target letters or commission statements plus your qualifications.
  3. Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
  4. Watch for a call or WhatsApp from How2Apply over the next 6 working days.
