Job Description

Talking money and risk takes trust; at this funeral cover call centre in Ballito you'll build it call by call. Someone who likes a bit of variety, but also likes doing things the right way, will enjoy this.

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

The work, day to day

  • Save policies when clients call to cancel.
  • Explain waiting periods, exclusions and premiums in plain terms.
  • Do a needs analysis and match the client to the right product.
  • Call warm leads from the dialler and qualify them in the first minute.
  • Track daily sales, conversions and lapse rates on the team board.
  • Follow up on quotes sent and chase missing documents.

What you need

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

Helpful, not essential

  • Your own car for field appointments
  • A qualification such as a Higher Certificate in Financial Planning
  • An existing client book (for field roles)

What's in it for you

  • CPD hours logged and funded
  • Medical aid and group life cover once permanent
  • Monthly sales competitions with cash prizes
  • RE5 exam fees and study material paid

How to apply

  1. Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
  2. Keep copies of these ready to send: your RE5 result letter and FSCA class-of-business proof plus consent form for credit and criminal checks.
  3. Fill in the short form below with your name and a phone number you actually answer.
  4. Watch for a call or WhatsApp from How2Apply over the next 8 working days.

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

  • Show commission history with real figures from payslips; interviewers trust numbers over claims.
  • If you have passed RE5, say so in your headline; it is the first filter in most financial sales ads.
