## Description

About the Business

A founder-led events and crew business operating at pace. The team is lean, remote and expected to deliver without hand-holding. Early mornings, late evenings and shifting priorities are part of the rhythm. If you thrive on commercial momentum and a high-energy environment, read on.

The Role

We are looking for a South Africa-based Business Development Coordinator to join a growing remote team. This is a hands-on commercial role - you will be generating new business, managing pipelines, progressing opportunities and keeping things moving. The benchmark for this hire is high. The current Ops Coordinator drives 30%+ year-on-year growth and brings order to a fast-moving operation with minimal direction. We are looking for the same.

What You Will Be Doing

\- Prospecting, outreach and pipeline management - identifying and progressing new business opportunities

\- Managing CRM records, follow-ups and deal tracking with precision

\- Preparing bids, proposals and client onboarding materials

\- Communicating directly with clients, crews and suppliers on behalf of the business

\- Supporting operational coordination as needed - this is a hybrid role and operational awareness matters

\- Reporting on pipeline activity, conversion rates and commercial output

The Environment

The business is led by a high-energy, fast-moving founder. The team operates in shifts covering 6am to 10pm. You will be expected to be responsive and proactive within your shift window. This is not a quiet desk job. It is an opportunity for genuine commercial responsibility and real ownership from day one.

What This Role Is Not

\- It is not a traditional sales role with a long ramp-up and hand-holding

\- It is not a pure admin or support position - commercial output is the primary measure of success

\- It is not 9 to 5, Monday to Friday

\- It is not for candidates who need constant direction or reassurance to get moving

Remuneration

R45 000 per month | Contractor basis | Remote, South Africa

## Requirements

What We Are Looking For

\- 3+ years in business development, sales coordination or a commercial operations role

\- A proven track record of contributing to revenue growth - we want numbers, not job descriptions

\- Strong CRM and pipeline management experience

\- A confident, independent communicator who can hold a client relationship without supervision

\- Comfortable working in a founder-led environment where priorities shift quickly

\- Experience in events, hospitality, entertainment or high-volume sectors is a strong advantage

\- Familiarity with business tools - CRM, project management, accounting software

\- Based in South Africa, with a reliable home working setup and the ability to work within a shift window between 6am and 10pm

## Benefits

\- R45 000 per month, contractor basis

\- Fully remote within South Africa

\- Genuine commercial responsibility and real ownership from day one

\- Direct exposure to the founder and the wider commercial operation

\- Scope to grow with a fast-moving events and crew business
