About the Opportunity
Strategic Account Executive
Location: Gauteng, Onsite
Our client — a rapidly scaling SaaS company in the enterprise technology space — is on the hunt for exceptional sales hunters who live for the thrill of winning new business.
This is not an account management or customer success role. It’s a pure new logo acquisition position, focused on engaging senior stakeholders, building relationships from the ground up, and closing complex SaaS deals across mid-market and enterprise clients, both locally and internationally.
If you’re a self-starter who thrives in high-performance environments, loves the chase, and knows how to open doors and close them behind you — this is the kind of role where top sellers shine.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Proactively identify, engage, and close net-new business opportunities within target markets
- Build and maintain a robust outbound pipeline through cold outreach, networking, and strategic prospecting
- Deliver high-impact discovery sessions, tailored product demos, and executive-level presentations
- Represent the brand at key industry events, partner forums, and client engagements
- Consistently achieve or exceed monthly and quarterly revenue targets
What We’re Looking For
- Currently employed and performing — this role targets active, top-tier sales professionals
- 7+ years of full-cycle B2B SaaS sales experience (mid-market or enterprise focus)
- Demonstrated ability to close new business and exceed quotas in competitive environments
- Skilled in consultative selling, negotiation, and stakeholder engagement
- Proven success selling complex or technical SaaS solutions to both business and IT audiences
- Highly organized, self-driven, and motivated by measurable outcomes
Preferred Experience
- Exposure to integration, automation, or data-driven SaaS products
- Familiarity with ERP, CRM, HRIS, or related enterprise systems
- Established network within Financial Services, Technology, or Logistics verticals
Why This Role Stands Out
This is an opportunity to join a fast-growing SaaS company with global reach, where your performance directly drives your earnings and career trajectory. You’ll have the autonomy to operate like a true business owner, backed by an innovative product and a leadership team that rewards results — not red tape.
- If you’re among the top percentile of B2B SaaS sales talent and ready to take on a role where your numbers speak for themselves, we’d love to connect.
