Sandton, Gauteng Full-time Closes 06 Dec 2026

What the job is: This job is for a Partnerships Associate based in Sandton, Gauteng. The role is with Catch, a company working in logistics and supply chain. You will be responsible for building relationships with potential clients and supporting the sales team to grow the business.

What you will do: You will start by finding and researching potential clients using the company’s tools and platforms. Once you identify promising leads, you will organize their details in spreadsheets and the company’s CRM system, like HubSpot. Your main task will be reaching out to these leads through LinkedIn, email, and phone calls to introduce them to the assigned Branch Manager and set up meetings.

You will also follow up with leads regularly, even if they have not responded before, to keep the conversation going. If leads come in through marketing efforts, you will help turn them into meetings. On LinkedIn, you will engage with people who interact with the company’s ads or content to build connections.

As part of the sales process, you will help prepare and submit proposals for clients, check if the company can meet their needs, and track how deals progress through the sales pipeline. Keeping client information updated in the CRM and ensuring all interactions are professional and consistent will be important. After meetings, you will follow up to keep relationships strong.

Finally, you will create regular reports to show how well the sales team is performing and compare progress against targets. You will work with Branch Managers to find ways to improve outreach strategies and make them more effective.

What you need: You should have a university degree in any field, though a background in commerce is preferred. While previous experience in sales, client engagement, or using CRM systems is not required, it will be an advantage. A strong academic record is also important.

For this role, you need to be good at communicating in English, both in writing and speaking. You should be friendly, professional, and organized, with strong time-management skills. Persistence is key—you will need to follow up with leads even if they don’t respond right away. Good phone and email manners are a must, and you should be driven to succeed and quick to learn.

You will also need to handle rejection well, as sales can be challenging. The job may require flexible working hours depending on the region you are assigned to.

What you will get: This role offers a permanent position with a performance-based bonus on top of your basic salary. There are opportunities for professional growth and financial rewards as you succeed in your role.
