ABOUT DAISY BUSINESS SOLUTIONS

For 40 years, Daisy Business Solutions has been at the forefront of South African business technology. What started as an office automation business has grown into one of the country's most complete technology and services providers, spanning managed print, connectivity, IT services and document management.

We have national scale, established brands, deep client relationships and the infrastructure to give our salespeople a genuine advantage in every pitch. But what really sets Daisy apart is our culture: performance-first, people-invested and focused on growth, for the business and for the people who drive it.

Why sell with Daisy?

• A portfolio that closes bigger deals: print, document management, IT, connectivity and managed services under one roof, so you can offer complete, integrated solutions.

• The infrastructure behind every promise: 550+ technicians nationally, in-house finance, dedicated product specialists and a full back-office team.

• Results are recognised, loudly: top performers earn serious money, gain visibility across the business and move into leadership faster.

THE ROLE

As a Senior Sales Executive in our Office Automation division, you'll hunt and close new business across KZN while managing and growing an existing client base with open opportunities ready to convert. You'll carry a personal revenue target, build your own pipeline and work with the autonomy of someone who has already proven they can close.

This is a senior individual contributor role. You won't manage a team, but you'll be expected to set the standard for the people around you.

What you'll do

• Hunt for new business with a primary focus on KZN, with the freedom to close quality deals nationally

• Manage and develop an existing client base, closing deals that are ready to progress

• Maintain a pipeline of at least 3x monthly target coverage

• Build lasting relationships as a trusted advisor, not a transactional rep

• Run professional discovery sessions and present tailored office automation and technology solutions

• Prepare competitive proposals, negotiate terms and pricing, and close with confidence

• Manage the full sales cycle, from first engagement to signed agreement, handover and ongoing account ownership

• Keep accurate CRM records and pipeline data

• Consistently meet and exceed monthly GP and revenue targets

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

Essential requirements

• 3 to 5 years of B2B sales experience with a strong, verifiable track record in new business and account management

• Background in Office Automation, Managed Print Services, IT services or Telecoms strongly preferred

• Proven ability to close in competitive, solution-based selling environments, across short and longer sales cycles

• Strong commercial acumen: GP awareness, deal structuring and value-based negotiation

• CRM discipline, with structured pipeline management and accurate forecasting

• Professional, boardroom-ready communication and presentation skills

• Matric minimum

• Own reliable vehicle and valid driver's licence

• Willingness to travel within KZN, with flexibility to pursue national opportunities At the senior level, we also look for:

• A balance of hunter and farmer: you open new doors and protect the ones you've already walked through

• Commercial maturity: you think about margin, not just revenue

• Influence without authority: clients trust you and internal teams respect you

• Resilience and consistency: you perform in good months and hard ones

• Coachability and curiosity: experienced enough to know what works, humble enough to keep improving

EARNINGS & COMPENSATION

• Base salary: R30,000 – R45,000 CTC per month

• Commission: fully uncapped, on new business and account-based revenue

• On-target earnings: R600,000 – R1,500,000 per year

• Top performers: R1,500,000+ annually, with no cap

• Incentives: performance bonuses, recognition programme and accelerators

Commission is earned on gross profit from new business and on revenue from your existing portfolio. As your client base grows, your recurring income compounds, adding an annuity layer on top of new business earnings.

CAREER DEVELOPMENT

Senior is a starting point, not a ceiling. Progression at Daisy is driven by performance, not time served. Joining at this level puts you one well-executed year away from a leadership conversation, and many of our Sales Managers and Regional Directors came through this exact role.

Your growth path: Senior Sales Executive → Key Accounts Manager → Sales Manager → Regional Leadership

You'll get formal product training, sales methodology coaching and access to senior leadership mentorship.

LIFE AT DAISY

• Real autonomy: you manage your own territory, pipeline and day

• Managers who add value: our sales leaders are coaches first, offering honest feedback and deal support

• Long-term relationships: we encourage deep client partnerships, not close-and-move-on selling

• Wins are celebrated: top performers are recognised publicly and rewarded financially

• Structured development: full product onboarding, methodology coaching and a ramp plan to get you to target fast

• Position: Senior Sales Executive

• Division: Office Automation
