Job Description

This conference and events venue in Stellenbosch wants someone who can open doors and keep accounts for years. Expect to be trusted with real work from your first week.

The work is in Stellenbosch, Western Cape, so you'll need a reliable way to get there every day. Start date: as soon as possible for the right person.

What you'll actually do

Book and run discovery meetings with buyers and procurement managers.
Forecast monthly sales and report pipeline value each Monday.
Visit key accounts monthly and check how the service is going.

Attend trade shows and industry breakfasts to meet buyers.
Log every lead, meeting and deal stage in the CRM.

Valid driver's licence and your own reliable car
2 or more years of business-to-business sales with a proven record
Matric plus a sales, marketing or technical qualification
Solid presentation and negotiation skills
Confident with Excel, Outlook and a CRM
Resilient enough to handle long sales cycles and rejection

Nice if you have

Salesforce, Zoho or HubSpot CRM experience
A technical trade or engineering background for sales engineer roles
An existing network of buyers in your sector

On offer

Cellphone contract and laptop
Pension fund and medical aid contributions
Car allowance and fuel card
Annual incentive trip for top performers

Applying, step by step

Make sure the role, the hours and working in Stellenbosch really suit you before you apply.
Keep copies of these ready to send: a recently certified ID copy (within 3 months) plus proof of past sales performance, such as target letters or commission statements.
Fill in the short form below with your name and a phone number you actually answer.
If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 9 working days, usually by phone.

Your application joins the How2Apply talent pool for this role, and we put shortlisted people forward to employers hiring in and around Stellenbosch.

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

Prepare a 30-60-90 day plan for the territory and bring it to the second interview.
Show target versus actual for each of your last three years; B2B managers skip CVs without numbers.
