The posting

Fundwell is a US-facing fintech lending platform, and we're expanding our Johannesburg sales team. We help American business owners access the funding they need to grow, and every relationship begins with a strong first conversation.

We're looking for Business Development Representatives who are confident on the phone and keen to develop a high-calibre outbound skill set. You'll work alongside a driven team in a fast-paced, target-focused environment, with the coaching and support to help you succeed.

This is a phones-first position. Day to day, you'll be cold calling US business owners, opening conversations, qualifying interest, and setting up opportunities for our closing team. It suits someone competitive, resilient, and motivated by clear goals.

  • A clear, confident phone manner suited to a US audience
  • Comfort with high call volumes and a performance-driven environment
  • Strong rapport-building and communication skills
  • CRM familiarity, or the ability to pick it up quickly
  • Willingness to work onsite in Fourways on US hours
  • Are eligible to work in South Africa

Key responsibilities

  • Make high-volume outbound cold calls to US-based business owners
  • Open conversations, build rapport quickly, and qualify prospects
  • Handle objections with confidence and keep prospects engaged
  • Book qualified meetings for the closing team
  • Maintain an accurate pipeline and clear records in the CRM
  • Meet and exceed daily and weekly call and meeting targets

Benefits

  • Basic is from R10 000 - R15 000 depending on experience, plus uncapped, accelerated commission
  • A supportive, high-performing onsite team in Fourways, Johannesburg
  • US working hours (2:00 PM – 11:00 PM or 3:00 PM – 12:00 AM SAST)
  • Structured coaching and a clear path to develop your career in fintech

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
