Job Summary
Some businesses grow because markets are favourable; others grow because they are consistently back ambitious people to create opportunities where none existed before.Our client is a highly regarded commercial property business with a strong national footprint and ambitious growth plans across South Africa and Sub-Saharan Africa. Known for its professionalism, market expertise and premium service offering, the business has built a reputation for delivering exceptional outcomes for landlords, investors and occupiers alike. As growth accelerates, an opportunity has arisen for a commercially astute New Business & Broker Recruitment Executive to play a pivotal role in expanding the Property Management portfolio and attracting top-performing brokers to the business.
This is a genuine hunting role, not an account management position. The successful candidate will be responsible for identifying and securing new business opportunities, opening doors with landlords, property owners, developers and corporate clients, and promoting the company's Property Management and Occupier Services offerings. A key measure of success will be your ability to generate new client relationships through proactive prospecting, networking, canvassing and cold calling, while contributing to the reduction of vacancies across managed portfolios. In parallel, you will actively identify, attract and engage high-calibre brokers and sales professionals who can strengthen the company's presence across strategic markets.
We are looking for someone with 4 to 7 years' proven experience in business development and new client acquisition, with a track record of winning business through direct sales activity rather than relying on inbound leads. Experience within commercial property would be advantageous; however, outstanding candidates from interior design, luxury brands, premium hospitality, workplace solutions, corporate furniture, automotive or other high-end relationship-driven industries will be considered. The ideal individual is polished, ambitious, commercially driven and comfortable engaging with senior decision-makers. If you're known for opening doors, building influential networks and turning conversations into commercial opportunities, this is an opportunity to join a respected brand and make a visible impact on its next phase of growth.
