About Takealot
At Takealot the sales jobs include retail media, the sponsored listings and campaigns that brands and marketplace sellers buy on Takealot and on its Mr D delivery app. Takealot Group Advertising is hiring advertising sales managers who each lead five to ten sales specialists against revenue targets and plan their top 30 clients every quarter, a key account manager posting that writes proposals, cost estimates and performance reports for brand advertisers, a digital account manager who grows marketplace sellers' spend on the self-service Sponsored Advertising platform, and a Mandarin and English speaker who does the same for Mandarin-speaking international sellers. Mr D adds retail media key account managers, one for restaurant brands and one for FMCG and shop brands, plus a key account manager who grows order revenue from national restaurant chains through menus, promotions and joint marketing. Takealot Fulfilment Solutions (TFS), which handles more than 30 million orders a year, wants a business development manager to win new fulfilment clients and a key account manager to hold existing ones to their SLAs across the last-mile network. The openings are in Cape Town.

SalesJobs.Now is free for job seekers. Some links here pay us: a job ad network pays for a click on one of its sponsored jobs, a recruiting firm pays a referral fee when someone who came from here is hired, and a career tool pays a commission when you buy it. That costs you nothing and never lowers what you are paid. Roles whose links pay us can be placed higher in a list. "Featured roles" are openings an employer picked during a free trial with us; no employer can pay for that spot.
