Sales Representative - US Market

Open 55d

Who we are
Fundwell helps US businesses get funded without the bank runaround. Our Cape Town team is the front line of that — the first conversation an American business owner has with us happens on your phone.

The job, plainly
Cold calling. A lot of it. You'll work through US business owners, figure out who genuinely needs capital, qualify them properly, and hand over opportunities that actually convert. Volume is high and the numbers are visible daily. That suits some people brilliantly and others not at all — worth being honest with yourself before applying.

Day to day

  • 150–200+ outbound calls to US prospects
  • Reaching decision-makers and having a real conversation, not a script recital
  • Spotting genuine funding needs and positioning the right product
  • Disciplined follow-up
  • Hitting daily, weekly and monthly targets
  • Accurate CRM notes

Requirements

  • Comfortable working US hours (2:00 PM–11:00 PM or 3:00 PM–12:00 AM).
  • Have 1+ year in outbound sales, telesales or B2B (customer service experience isn't the same thing)
  • Speak clear, confident English — your entire market is American
  • Handle rejection without it changing how you sound on the next call
  • Can commit to on-site work
  • Are eligible to work in South Africa
  • Bonus: fintech, business funding or financial services background, or a track record of strong objection handling.

Benefits

  • Competitive base plus uncapped, accelerated commission
  • Quarterly and annual performance bonuses
  • Transport home after every shift, door to door
  • Apple hardware and medical cover
  • Free mornings — you start at 2pm
  • A genuine route into closing and leadership as the office grows
  • Medical benefits
