Based in Port Elizabeth | Covers PE, Durban & Cape Town
Are you someone who thrives on coaching others, creating structure, and helping young people succeed?
We’re looking for a hands-on mentor and guide to support a team of junior Sales Cadets across the coastal region. These are first-time sales professionals, often in their first job, and they need someone who can provide steady support, clear expectations, and consistent follow-through.
This is a Port Elizabeth–based role, with regional responsibility for Durban and Cape Town as well. You’ll check in regularly with each team, keep them focused on their development milestones, and provide both encouragement and structure to help them grow into confident, capable salespeople.
What You’ll Be Doing:
- Coach, mentor, and guide junior sales staff across PE, Durban, and Cape Town
- Instil a disciplined, activity-driven sales approach built on proven, traditional methods — picking up the phone, meeting face-to-face, and building real connectionsHelp cadets adjust to a structured corporate environment
- Reinforce daily habits, admin discipline, and process adherence
- Monitor individual progress and provide feedback to support their growth
- Visit Durban and Cape Town teams periodically for in-person support
- Be a patient, practical support system – but also hold them accountable
What You’ll Need:
- Experience mentoring or leading junior staff — ideally in a sales or service environment
- A coaching mindset and genuine interest in people development
- Strong admin and organisational skills (this is a process-driven environment)
- Confident, consistent, and supportive in your communication style
- Based in or near Port Elizabeth, with own transport
- Willingness to travel periodically to Durban and Cape Town
Why This Role Exists:
These young cadets are stepping into unfamiliar territory — corporate expectations, client interaction, and structured sales processes. They don’t just need a manager. They need a mentor. Someone who can help them find their feet, stay on track, and believe in themselves.
If you’re steady, encouraging, and driven by people development — this is your opportunity to make a real impact.
