Our client in Midrand is looking for a Junior Account Executive to join their dynamic team. If you have 2-3 years of experience in internal sales and sales administration, coupled with some external sales, preferably within the Print, Stationery, or FMCG industry, then we want to hear from you!

  • Support: Assist management with order processing, tenders, and any other sales-related tasks to ensure smooth operation.

What We’re Looking For:

  • 2-3 years of Sales Experience: Ideally in Internal Sales, Telesales and Sales Administration, with exposure to Print, Stationery, or FMCG sectors.

  • Bilingual: Fluent in both English and Afrikaans.
  • Matric Certificate (Minimum of 6 subjects).
  • Self-Confident and Motivated: You’re proactive, reliable, and always strive for success.

  • High Attention to Detail: Accuracy is key, especially when capturing orders and managing client details.

If you’re ready to take the next step in your career and seeking an opportunity to grow within a dynamic company and expand your sales career, apply now! We are excited to meet candidates who have the experience and passion to succeed.
