We work with South Africa’s top corporates, agencies, and broadcasters, delivering high-impact, world-class content and experiences. Our reputation is built on creative excellence, precision execution, and consistently delivering world class productions. We are looking for a high-performance sales hunter to drive new business growth — someone who thrives on targets, opens doors from cold, and consistently closes high-value deals.

- Minimum 5–10+ years proven B2B sales experience
- Demonstrated track record of personally originating new business from cold outreach
- Strong experience selling high-value or complex solutions (not transactional sales)

- Experience in industries such as:
- SaaS / Technology
- Media / Advertising
- AV / Events
- Telecom / Office Automation
- Corporate solutions sales
- Highly self-motivated with a hunter mentality
- Resilient, persistent, and target-driven
- Strong commercial instinct and closing ability
What You’ll Be Doing
- Actively hunt and secure new business through cold outreach, networking, and strategic prospecting
- Open doors with corporates, agencies, brands and government sector
- Build and manage a strong pipeline of opportunities
- Sell high-value, solution-based offerings across:
- TV commercials
- Corporate videos
- Live events & Audio Visual solutions
- Branded content
- AI-driven content creation
- Interpret client needs and translate them into commercially viable solutions
- Prepare proposals, presentations, and detailed quotations
- Consistently meet and exceed revenue targets
What This Role Is NOT
- Not for account managers
- Not for campaign coordination
- Not for marketing specialists
- Not for professionals relying inbound leads
What We Offer
- Basic Salary: Negotiable - dependent on experience
- High commission structure with R1M – R2M+ earning potential
- Ongoing sales training, coaching, and development
- Exposure to top-tier clients and high-impact projects
- A fast-paced, high-performance environment based in Sandton
- A driven, supportive, and ambitious team culture where high standards, accountability, and collaboration are the norm
- A workplace that recognises performance, rewards results, and pushes you to operate at your highest level
Who You’ll Thrive
You’ll thrive in this role if you:
- Enjoy closing deals more than managing relationships
- Are comfortable with rejection and persistence
- Prefer creating opportunities vs waiting for them
- Want uncapped earning potential based on performance
