Job Description

Your pipeline, your territory, your commission: that is the deal at this office equipment supplier in Bellville. If you like clear targets and knowing where you stand, this is for you.

You'll report in Bellville. Relocation is not covered for this one. Weekend work is on a roster, so you won't be on every weekend.

What you'll actually do

  • Work with operations to hand over new clients smoothly.
  • Respond to RFQs and tenders with complete supplier packs, including B-BBEE certificates.
  • Forecast monthly sales and report pipeline value each Monday.
  • Book and run discovery meetings with buyers and procurement managers.
  • Chase overdue accounts with the credit department before they grow.
  • Prospect new companies by phone, LinkedIn and walk-ins in business parks.
  • Attend trade shows and industry breakfasts to meet buyers.

Must-haves

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

Nice if you have

  • Salesforce, Zoho or HubSpot CRM experience
  • Tender and CSD registration experience
  • An existing network of buyers in your sector

What's in it for you

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

Applying, step by step

  1. Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): your qualifications, a recently certified ID copy (within 3 months) plus proof of past sales performance, such as target letters or commission statements.
  3. Fill in the short form below with your name and a phone number you actually answer.
  4. Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 8 working days.
