Team Leader

You will be supporting the sales, marketing, and the advice and guidance team by ensuring that the team is compliant with the policies and procedures of the organisation and offer consistency in service delivery. You will also be responsible for leading, training and reporting for each team member under your supervision. Our ideal leader has in-depth knowledge of and experience with the sales process, excelling at lead generation, relationship building, and closing.

Although it will not be a sales role, the company progress reports are based on deliverables and target quotas so it may well seem like a sales role. The role demands a leader with a sharp mind and the ability to coach, advise, motivate and guide to create and maintain a high performing team. Key Responsibilities
