Job description

Strategic SaaS Account Executive – South Africa (Remote).

We’re hiring a Strategic SaaS Account Executive to join a fast-growing data and technology business serving the investment and asset management sector.

In this role, you’ll lead complex, consultative sales cycles — identifying opportunities, running deep discovery sessions, shaping tailored SaaS solutions, and closing high-value enterprise deals.

This position suits a confident communicator who thrives on solving technical and business challenges through a value-driven sales approach.

Salary : R40,000 – R60,000 per month + performance bonus + commission.

Area : Remote (South Africa).

Type : Full-time, Remote.

Responsibilities :

  • Engage senior stakeholders (CIOs, CTOs, Heads of Data) within investment and asset-management firms.
  • Lead discovery sessions to uncover business pain points and craft tailored SaaS solutions.
  • Manage full-cycle enterprise sales — from prospecting through proof-of-concept to close.
  • Partner closely with technical and delivery teams to ensure smooth handover and client success.
  • Maintain an accurate, healthy pipeline using CRM best practices.
  • Track market activity, competitor positioning, and client feedback to refine strategy.
  • Build long-term client relationships founded on trust, expertise, and measurable results.

Requirements :

  • 5–8 years of experience in B2B SaaS or data-technology sales.
  • Proven success selling complex, consultative solutions involving discovery and scoping.
  • Background in platform or solution-as-a-service sales, with experience in integrations or custom workflows.
  • Strong experience engaging with C-level and technical stakeholders in investment, banking, or asset management.
  • Deep understanding of data-focused products — comfortable discussing APIs, data models, and integrations.
  • Skilled at running structured discovery processes and translating needs into tailored solutions.
  • Track record managing long enterprise sales cycles (3–12 months) and proofs of value.
  • Familiarity with South African investment markets or similar environments is a plus.
  • Excellent communication, presentation, and relationship-building skills.
  • Self-driven, analytical, and comfortable working independently from home.
