This is an exciting opportunity to join us as we enter the South African market and look to showcase FIXR’s world-class tech to anyone and everyone requiring a ticketing and events management platform. The role will mainly be focused on sales and generating sustainable revenue, however due to the size of the business you will need to be an all-rounder, willing to take on ad-hoc projects and jump in when needed.

• Assisting with access controls at events that require this.

Requirements

• Ability to multi-task with excellent organisation and planning skills.
• Entrepreneurial mindset and ability to spot / create opportunities.
• Excellent documentation and communication skills.
• Go-getting attitude – you’re ambitious and believe you get out what you put in.
• Self-starters. You’ll get trained and you are part of a team, but we’re moving fast, and we need people who can think for themselves.
• Feel comfortable pitching to customers and closing deals.
• You must have the right to work in South Africa.
