Job Description

Talking money and risk takes trust; at this personal loans branch in Umhlanga you'll build it call by call. Expect to be trusted with real work from your first week.

You'll be based at a personal loans branch in Umhlanga. Living nearby, or on a taxi route to it, really helps. Start date: as soon as possible for the right person.

What your day looks like

  • Save policies when clients call to cancel.
  • Read the FAIS disclosures and record client consent on every call.
  • Follow up on quotes sent and chase missing documents.
  • Explain waiting periods, exclusions and premiums in plain terms.
  • Capture new policies on the admin system and check debit order details.
  • Visit clients at home or work for field advice appointments.
  • Do a needs analysis and match the client to the right product.

What you need

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

What you get

  • Monthly sales competitions with cash prizes
  • CPD hours logged and funded
  • RE5 exam fees and study material paid

Applying, step by step

  1. Make sure the role, the hours and working in Umhlanga really suit you before you apply.
  2. Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: your RE5 result letter and FSCA class-of-business proof plus certified copy of your SA ID or work permit.
  3. Use the form on this page. It takes about two minutes and you don't need to upload anything yet.
  4. Watch for a call or WhatsApp from How2Apply over the next 5 working days.
