Job description

Position: B2B Sales Executive – Events


Are you a natural-born salesperson?


You love the chase. You enjoy opening doors, starting conversations and turning complete strangers into clients. Give you a room full of decision-makers and you don't wait for introductions — you start making them.


You believe great selling happens person to person. You pick up the phone. You get the meeting. You show up. You ask questions. You spot opportunities. You follow up. And you close.


Our client is a rapidly growing events and technical production company delivering solutions across corporate events, conferences, exhibitions, product launches and live productions. They are looking for an experienced, energetic sales professional to take their offering to market and win new business.


This is a hands-on sales role. If you'd rather be in front of a prospect than sitting behind a desk preparing another sales strategy, we want to hear from you.


WHAT WILL YOU DO?

Your primary responsibility is simple: find and win new business.



  • Prospect actively and build a strong pipeline of new opportunities.

  • Cold call, network, ask for introductions and secure meetings with decision-makers.

  • Attend conferences, exhibitions and industry events — and actively work the room.

  • Identify upcoming events, tenders, activations and projects.

  • Meet prospective clients, understand their needs and present the right EVH solution.

  • Prepare and present proposals, negotiate and close the deal.

  • Follow up consistently and take ownership of your sales targets.

  • Turn new business wins into valuable long-term clients.


WHAT DO YOU BRING?


  • A proven track record in new-business B2B sales.

  • Several years of successful, target-driven sales experience.

  • The confidence to open doors and engage senior decision-makers.

  • Excellent face-to-face selling, networking, negotiation and closing skills.

  • Commercial hunger, resilience and the discipline to follow through.

  • A valid driver's licence and your own reliable vehicle.

  • The willingness to get out into the market and make things happen.


WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU?

This role is structured for a salesperson who wants to earn.



  • Solid basic salary, negotiable according to experience and track record.

  • Total monthly earnings of up to R80,000+ for a strong performer.

  • Petrol/travel allowance.

  • Company laptop and cellphone.

  • Direct access to the business owners and a broad range of solutions to take to market
