Senior Sales Consultant – Industrial Filtration Solutions

Location: Nigel

The Opportunity

We are working with a long-established global leader supplying essential solutions to industries such as mining, cement, milling, power, and pharmaceuticals. Their South African operation, based in Nigel, supports some of the country’s most critical industrial sectors.

They are looking for a proven sales hunter – someone with the drive, energy, and credibility to open doors, chase down opportunities, and consistently deliver results.

Role Overview

This is not a desk-bound role. Success will come from being active in the field, constantly building relationships, and converting prospects into measurable business.

You will:

  • Use your broad industry network to get in front of the right people and spot opportunities early.
  • Bring market intelligence – knowing where projects are happening and how to position yourself ahead of competitors.
  • Hunt down new business and close deals, not just manage accounts.
  • Take ownership of targets and deliver, without needing to be pushed.

Candidate Profile

We’re looking for someone who can show a history of getting results where others could not.

Must-haves:

  • A credible network across mining, cement, pharmaceuticals, milling, and related industries.
  • Proven ability to generate and close new business in tough markets.
  • Resilient, persistent, and highly self-motivated.
  • A track record that demonstrates both past success and the ability to build future growth.

Why This Role

  • Represent a trusted international brand with solutions relied on across industries.
  • Work in a space where relationships, credibility, and hustle matter more than price.
  • An opportunity to show what you can achieve in a region where the right person can make a significant impact.

How to Apply

If you’re a hunter at heart, with the network, drive, and determination to build real turnover in this market, we’d like to hear from you.
