Sales Consultant

The organisation is recruiting a Sales Consultant for its Gqeberha operation. The role forms part of a wider retail jobs portfolio across Eastern Cape.

The Role

Crucially, the Sales Consultant vacancy forms part of how the Gqeberha branch keeps performing. It pairs day-to-day delivery with longer-running priorities that keep the retail jobs side of the business moving forward.

Communication runs both ways. Managers across the retail jobs team in Eastern Cape make time for one-to-ones, and people are expected to speak up early when something needs attention.

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 Gqeberha much easier.

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 Gqeberha teams, and the new Sales Consultant will feel that from the first week.

Your Team

You will join a tight-knit, collaborative team that knows the retail jobs side of the business inside out. The Gqeberha group is a healthy mix of experienced operators and newer joiners, all of whom share a strong commitment to delivery and to one another.

In addition, the team structure and working relationships for this role in Gqeberha will be explained during the hiring process.

Line management is hands-on without being heavy. Expect regular one-to-ones, honest feedback and the support needed to do good work consistently.

Collaboration is the default working mode. Whether picking up a quick query or working through a complex project, you will find colleagues willing to lean in and help.

Where You’ll Work

Importantly, the work environment is fast-paced and customer-facing. Expect long periods on your feet, weekend and public-holiday shifts, and the energy that comes with a busy retail floor.

Beyond that, the role is intended to operate under the hiring organisation’s workplace conduct, health and safety policies in Eastern Cape.

On top of that, the working environment is set up to give the team the focus needed for deeper work, while keeping collaboration and quick problem-solving close at hand.

Health, safety and well-being are taken seriously. Current policies and procedures are maintained, and the Gqeberha site adheres to the standards expected of a responsible South African employer.

Equal Opportunity

On top of that, the organisation supports a respectful workplace. Applications are welcome from suitably qualified candidates across Eastern Cape, and recruitment is intended to be fair and transparent.

Beyond that, the hiring organisation’s applicable employment-equity and inclusion practices will be explained in the final vacancy details for Eastern Cape.

B-BBEE compliance is more than a scorecard here. It informs how the business invests in skills development, supplier diversity and community engagement across the country.

Inclusive hiring extends through onboarding and into how teams operate every day. Respectful, fair conduct is expected from every team member in Gqeberha.
