Are you a high-performing B2B solution seller with a passion for Learning & Development? Do you thrive in fast-paced environments and have a strong track record of smashing big sales targets? Then we want to meet you!

A well-established, national training and development provider is expanding its team and is on the hunt for a Partnership Manager to help scale their presence across retail, FMCG, and hospitality sectors. This role is perfect for someone who can think strategically, work independently, and engage confidently with executive-level stakeholders.

What You'll Do

• Drive new business sales and key account growth through tailored L&D solutions.
• Prospect, cold-call, follow up, and close deals with high-value clients.
• Work with the internal product team to create client-specific offerings aligned with QCTO standards.
• Maintain and forecast your pipeline using tools like Zoho CRM.
• Stay on top of industry and competitor trends to keep solutions relevant and compelling.
• Contribute to marketing strategy and brand awareness initiatives.
• Report on performance, risks, and opportunities to continuously improve your impact.

We're Looking For

• Proven experience in solution-based sales (not transactional selling).
• A solid network and history with Retail, FMCG, and/or Hospitality clients.
• Knowledge of QCTO standards and the L&D industry is a strong advantage.
• Able to handle high-pressure targets - think R2 million/month, not per year.
• Strategic thinker who's innovative, calm under pressure, and knows how to get results.
• Strong business writing and proposal development skills.
• Bonus: Existing client list or active book of business.

Qualifications & Experience

• Relevant degree/diploma in Sales, Marketing, or similar.
• 3-6 years' experience in the training & development or solution sales space.
• Demonstrable track record of exceeding targets in a B2B environment.

Why Apply?
This is a unique opportunity to work with a respected training provider that's innovating in the L&D space. You'll be empowered to shape your own region, backed by a collaborative internal team and robust product offering - and you'll be rewarded for your results.
