Internal Sales Representative, Kempton Park

Internal Sales Rep - Johannesburg

This is an office‑based, internally focused sales role supporting external sales and project execution, and we are specifically looking for candidates with practical valve and actuation knowledge, rather than general commercial sales profiles.
 
???? Role Overview
The Internal Salesperson will play a critical role in supporting customers, distributors, and sales teams through:

• Preparation of technical and commercial quotations
• Supporting project-based orders from enquiry through handover
• Internal coordination with engineering, supply chain, and manufacturing
• Managing pricing, delivery clarifications, and technical documentation
• Providing responsive, professional customer support

 
✅ Key Candidate Requirements
We ask that candidates meet most or all of the following criteria:
Technical & Industry Experience

• Proven experience in internal / inside sales within an industrial environment
• Hands‑on knowledge of valves and actuation (butterfly, ball, knife gate, actuators, accessories)
• Exposure to process industries such as mining, water, oil & gas, power, or manufacturing
• Ability to interpret data sheets, specifications, and basic P&IDs (advantageous)

Commercial & Operational Skills

• Strong experience in preparing quotations (technical + commercial)
• Order processing and project support experience
• Understanding of project workflows, priorities, and deadlines
• Customer‑focused with strong attention to detail

Systems & Office Skills

• Strong computer literacy
• Comfortable working with ERP / CRM systems (SAP, Infor, Oracle, Dynamics, or similar)
• Proficient in MS Excel, Word, and Outlook
• Prior experience in a structured office-based sales environment is essential

 
???? Profile Fit (Important)
This role suits candidates who are:

• Internally focused (not external, field‑based sales)
• Technically confident but commercially minded
• Structured, detail‑oriented, and reliable
• Comfortable managing multiple enquiries and projects in parallel

We are not looking for junior administrators, nor purely relationship‑driven salespeople with no technical grounding
