Job Description

This funeral cover call centre in Fourways pays a basic plus commission, and your pipeline sets the ceiling. It's a practical job: you'll see what you got done before you go home.

Location: Fourways, Gauteng. Applicants who already live in the area get looked at first. Weekend work is on a roster, so you won't be on every weekend.

The work, day to day

  • Explain waiting periods, exclusions and premiums in plain terms.
  • Visit clients at home or work for field advice appointments.
  • Do a needs analysis and match the client to the right product.
  • Read the FAIS disclosures and record client consent on every call.
  • Capture new policies on the admin system and check debit order details.
  • Call warm leads from the dialler and qualify them in the first minute.

You'll need

  • 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
  • Matric, including Maths or Maths Literacy

Helpful, not essential

  • Completed class of business training for short-term or long-term insurance
  • Your own car for field appointments
  • An existing client book (for field roles)

What you get

  • Monthly sales competitions with cash prizes
  • Basic salary plus uncapped commission
  • Medical aid and group life cover once permanent
  • RE5 exam fees and study material paid

How to apply for this job

  1. Make sure the role, the hours and working in Fourways really suit you before you apply.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): your RE5 result letter and FSCA class-of-business proof, consent form for credit and criminal checks plus your matric results, certified.
  3. Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
  4. If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 10 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 Fourways.

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.
  • Check your credit record before you apply, because a judgment or default will stop your FAIS appointment.
