Job description

Business Development Executive

Johannesburg | Full-time | Office-based

This isn’t your typical sales role. It’s an opportunity to build real wealth, grow your influence, and make a tangible impact on the South African economy.

At Raizcorp, we’re not focused on pushing products. We partner with corporates to solve meaningful challenges while helping build the country’s next generation of businesses.

Every deal you close supports real entrepreneurs.
Every client you bring in drives measurable change.
And because clients renew annually, you keep earning from the relationships you build.

Why this role exists

We’re looking for high-performing business development professionals who are comfortable operating at a C-suite level, navigating complex environments, and closing high-value, solution-driven deals.

This is strategic, consultative B2B sales—not transactional selling.

If you’re a natural hunter, a strong closer, and someone who thrives in a performance-driven environment, this role offers a platform to grow both your income and your career in a meaningful way.

What you’ll be doing

You’ll take full ownership of the sales cycle - from identifying opportunities to closing deals and growing long-term client relationships:

  • Winning new business
    Identifying and securing corporate clients through targeted outreach, networking, and relationship-building.
  • Selling tailored solutions
    Understanding client needs and designing customised Enterprise & Supplier Development (ESD), Skills Development, and SED solutions.
  • Engaging senior decision-makers
    Working directly with CEOs, CFOs, procurement leaders, and transformation executives.
  • Closing meaningful deals
    Leading negotiations, presenting compelling proposals, and converting opportunities into long-term partnerships.
  • Building a long-term client base
    Strengthening relationships, driving renewals, and identifying upsell opportunities—earning ongoing commission.
  • Representing Raizcorp
    Acting as a trusted advisor and brand ambassador in the corporate space.
What makes this role different
  • Annuity-based commission model
    You don’t just earn once—your income grows as your clients renew year after year.
  • Work with real impact
    Your success directly contributes to job creation, economic growth, and transformation.
  • Structured training
    No prior B-BBEE or ESD experience needed—we’ll equip you with the expertise.
  • True solution selling
    You’re not selling products—you’re delivering strategic outcomes.
  • A high-performance environment
    Designed for driven, results-focused individuals who want to succeed.
What we’re looking for

This is a selective role, suited to experienced professionals who can perform at a high level.

Non-negotiables:

  • Proven experience in B2B / corporate / solution sales (typically 3 - 5+ years)
  • A strong track record of closing high-value deals
  • Experience working with senior decision-makers
  • Solid pipeline management and forecasting skills
  • High levels of drive, resilience, and accountability

You’ll do well if:

  • You’re a natural hunter with strong closing ability
  • You think strategically, not just transactionally
  • You understand business and can engage at a commercial level
  • You’re confident in a boardroom environment
  • You’re motivated by performance-based earnings rather than capped salaries
What you’ll get
  • Competitive base salary plus a highly rewarding, annuity-based commission structure
  • Ongoing training and development
  • Access to Salesforce CRM and full operational support
  • Exposure to leading corporate clients
  • A career path that grows with your performance
The opportunity

This is a role where:

  • Your income builds year after year
  • Your client base becomes a long-term asset
  • Your work contributes to meaningful national impact

If you’re ready to step up and perform at a higher level, apply now.
