Job description

About SM Investments Corporation

SMIC became incorporated in 1960 as the holding company of the SM Group. More than 60 years later, the corporation evolved into the largest conglomerate in the Philippines based on market value. SMIC engages in three core industries: banking, retail, and real estate.

Your role

• To assist in the reservation sales process and compliance with post-booking requirements.
• Handles pre-booking (review if compliant) / post-booking of sales reservations (OTS for completion of documentary requirements and other needed details for CTS preparation).
• Responsible for proper coordination with the sellers relative to their accounts with incomplete details and requirements and ensures that these are completed immediately.
• Acceptance and encoding of new sales for submission to SRS.
• Verification of BP no. of sellers hierarchy in SAP and checking the status of the sellers if active or not.
• Checks the accuracy of commission rebate computation and payment term computation in the SOP.
• Ensures that the sellers who held the unit in SAP are the same person indicated on the booking documents.
• Performs other functions that may be required from time to time.

Compensation & benefits

Entry-level employees at SMIC may earn between Php12,000 and Php20,000. Certification and licensure boost a fresh grad’s base salary.

For instance, a SMIC accountant’s average salary is Php16,000 per month versus Php26,000 per month for a Certified Public Accountant. The company’s benefits package includes dental and medical coverage, as well as financial assistance (eg loans).

Work-life balance

In terms of work-life balance, most employees work during regular business hours from Monday to Friday. Certain roles like HR assistants may need to work overtime.

Despite a competitive work environment and long hours at the office, many have worked at SMIC for several years. Based on a headcount of 500 employees, their median tenure is 4.4 years.

Company culture

SMIC’s conducive workplace culture served as one reason for multiple top-employer awards. In 2021, the company joined the Top 100 Graduate Employers in the Philippines.

Some insiders, though, said that the company should have allowed a transition to a work-from-home arrangement during the COVID-19 pandemic. More in-house training and upskilling programs would also improve talent retention.
