You probably have a degree but your track record is what we’re interested in.

Likely candidates work or have worked as sales manager for Business Day, Financial Mail, News24, the economist or similar brands. They have an established network.

Having said this, please note, we don't want "seen it all, know it all, been there" candidates. We want you, that special person with that “make it happen” attitude.

Finance Indaba Africa is the biggest annual expo and conference for finance professionals. It brings together peers, technology suppliers, platforms, banks, tools, specialists, CFOs and thought leaders. 5,000 visitors tap into a wealth of resources, knowhow and inspiration.

Your goal is to best match clients objectives and to establish long term long lasting relations with advertisers and exhibitors. Your goal is double the sales, which might seem a challenge but is perfectly possible given the great feedback clients are giving now.

You will be offered a contract for a year with a three months probation period. You will be working in a small agile team with the country’s greatest talents. You will work in the Sandton office. Training in Europe is part of the job. You can start today. The sooner the better.
