Sales Consultant

A Sales Consultant is needed in Mbombela. The role focuses on consistent delivery, accurate work and clear communication across the Mpumalanga operation.

What This Role Involves

This Sales Consultant role has been briefed against a clear set of outcomes for Mbombela. The successful candidate will work alongside an established team and will be expected to contribute meaningfully to the retail jobs pipeline across Mpumalanga.

Day-to-day, the role balances focused delivery with the kind of collaboration that keeps things moving. The successful candidate is trusted to make sensible decisions inside the agreed scope, with line-management support whenever a sounding board is useful.

Tools, systems and information are there to support the role rather than slow it down. The company continues to invest in the technology that backs its Mbombela teams, and the new Sales Consultant will feel that from the first week.

Stakeholders for this position include line managers, peers across the retail jobs team and trusted external partners. Building those relationships early makes the next twelve months in Mbombela much easier.

Based in Mbombela
