The Role
This is a client-focussed position responsible for managing and nurturing a portfolio of smaller and non-SLA clients. Your primary goal will be to keep these clients engaged, informed and retained — while identifying opportunities to cross-sell, upsell and where applicable, convert non-SLA clients into contracted service agreements.
This is not a senior or technical role, but it does require someone who is confident on the phone and in client meetings, organised enough to manage a large number of accounts simultaneously, and commercially aware enough to spot an opportunity when it arises.
You will be the consistent point of contact for clients who might otherwise fall through the cracks — and your job is to make sure they don't.
What You Will Be Doing
You will know you are doing well when your clients feel looked after, when they stay, when they grow with the company and when those who were using the company on an ad hoc basis are ready to commit to a formal agreement.
Location: Rivonia, Sandton — fully office-based with minimal travel as required
If you are someone who genuinely enjoys building relationships, keeping people informed and finding the opportunity in every conversation, we would love to hear from you.
To apply, please submit your CV and a brief cover letter outlining your relevant experience.
