  • Develop a deep understanding of client hiring needs and position our EOR solutions as the answer.

Requirements

  • Minimum 3 years B2B sales or business development experience, ideally in recruitment, staffing, or professional services.
  • Proven record of meeting or exceeding sales targets.
  • Strong communication and negotiation skills.
  • Excellent written and verbal English (UK client base).
  • Tech-savvy,  confident using Close CRM, Manatal ATS, Slack, Office 365, and Google Workspace.
  • Driven by results, resilience, and reward.
  • Must be based in Cape Town and able to work from our Gardens office.
