* Follow up consistently and effectively to maximise conversions.
* Build trust and credibility while representing the company brand.
* Maintain accurate records of all sales activity within the CRM.
* Meet and exceed monthly sales targets and KPIs.
* Develop a strong understanding of the company's products and services.

* Self-motivated, proactive, and results-driven.
* Excellent verbal and written English.
* Reliable fibre internet connection and professional home office setup.

Tips for South African Applicants

⏰

Timezone Advantage

South Africa (SAST, UTC+2) overlaps well with European business hours and has a few hours of overlap with US East Coast. Mention your timezone flexibility in your application.

💰

Salary in Context

Even without a listed salary, international remote roles typically pay 2-3x more than equivalent local positions in South Africa due to the exchange rate advantage.

📋

Application Tips

Tailor your CV to international standards — use a clean format, highlight remote work experience, and include your English proficiency. Many SA applicants succeed by emphasising their strong work ethic and cultural adaptability.

🔌

Load Shedding Preparedness

If you're applying for a remote role, having a backup power solution (UPS, inverter, or generator) and mobile data as a backup internet connection shows employers you're prepared for South Africa's infrastructure challenges.
