The listing is placed by Hire Resolve, a top recruitment agency in South Africa that connects businesses with skilled and experienced professionals across many industries, including engineering, mining, IT, finance, manufacturing, construction, supply chain and logistics.

The representative works an allocated territory, growing the customer portfolio and looking after existing accounts while finding new business.

Role details and duties

• Achieve monthly concrete sales targets in terms of volume and value.
• Build and maintain strong client relationships while identifying new business opportunities.
