The ideal Business Development Consultant
Has at least 3 years’ experience in a business to business sales environment
Loves the thrill of sourcing intelligent leads, talking to the owners/CEO’s and establishing what their need is and then being able to advise how we can help them improve in that area (or to walk away if we can’t)
The focus of the role is on new business development – your natural preference must be to bring in the business and when the client is secured hand over the client management to someone else
Is not intimidated by targets and jumps over them like an Olympic Showjumper
Has great communication skills (written, telephonic and in person) and impeccable command of the English language
Has amazing interpersonal skills and can communicate with the owner of a start-up, CEO of a large corporation and the owner/manager of a small company
Valid drivers license and own car
You are not intimidated by rejection
High level of integrity and a desire to add value by suggesting our services – we do not sell just to reach numbers
Although you are a hunter you must still have great attention to detail and the ability to do basic administrative tasks and planning
Must be willing to work in the office as well as on the road (we are a close team who work as a unit and do not want a new addition to miss out on that)
Our office is based in Tygervalley Cape Town – You must either live in area or be prepared to move within 30 minutes drive of the area (unfortunately we are not able to cover relocation costs)
What is it like to work here:
We are a very close team and extremely passionate about what we are trying to achieve with our new venture
Our values are deeply entrenched in who we are, how we behave and who we recruit ?? because we guard the culture we have created so viciously we spend a lot of time ensuring that we bring the right people onboard - so although the team is small (for now) the awesome factor is very high, and it is the kind of environment where you want to go to work every day. An addition to the team must always increase the awesome factor!!
We are extremely transparent in how we manage and what we are and are not achieving, there is no sense of hierarchy – we all work together (from director level down to reception level) and we believe that you win as a team and you loose as a team
We do work hard, but the expectations are fair and achievable – work smarter not harder
We have group incentives for reaching certain company goals and we are passionate about allowing our staff to grow and move up on the ladder
We go the extra mile in everything we do and believe in “leaving the jersey in a better place”
