**Role Overview**

As a **Sales (Precious Metal) Consultant**, you will work closely with new and existing clients interested in investing in precious metals. This is a client-facing, consultative sales role where you will guide investors in building portfolios that suit their financial goals—whether they are interested in bullion, collectables, or graded coins.

This is an office-based role with high-commission potential and strong performance incentives, tailored for a sales-driven individual who is looking to grow their career in a dynamic and professional environment.

**Key Responsibilities**
- Engage with warm leads and new enquiries from marketing efforts and advertising.

- Stay informed on market trends and product updates to deliver relevant and timely advice to clients.
- Deliver post-sale client support to encourage long-term relationships and repeat business.
- Attend virtual team meetings, product training, and one-on-one sessions with management.

**Compensation & Commission Structure**
- **Commission**: 0.5-2.5% based on product type (average ~2%)
- 0.5-1% on lower-margin items such as bullion bars and coins.
- 1.5-2.5% on collectible and premium investment products (e.g. PCGS/NGC graded coins, proof coins, limited editions).

**Example**: £50,000 in monthly business at 2% average commission = **£1,000 commission + £650 base = £1,650/month (**~R40,000)

Higher volumes and higher-value collectibles increase this significantly.

**Contract Terms**
- **Initial Term**: 6-month contract as an independent consultant.
- High performers may be offered a pathway to **full-time employment** with BH International Ltd in the UK.
