Job Description

Are you a natural born people person? Do you always manage to get yourself out of trouble using your charm alone? If you've got the gift of the gab and could sell ice to the Eskimos then a career in telesales is calling you, so you better pick up the phone... 

So, what will I actually be doing?

As a telephone sales advisor you'll be selling products and services mostly in the telecommunications industry by calling current clients. Working within a team of other sales advisors, your day will be spent mostly calling buyers and persuading them to purchase a product. It’s that easy.

I hate mornings!

We work from 11:30 am to 8 pm and flexible, part time hours are available. No need to get up at the crack of dawn.

What do you want to be when you grow up?

Want a career in sales? Then this is the place to start. Telesales advisor roles are where many sales professionals learn the ropes, and those who have worked and been successful in these positions are often highly sought after. From telesales you can move on up to become a Performance Leader, sales executive, manager or director. We promote from within!

Money, money, money

It’s why any of us work, right? We provide an hourly wage and have a great bonus structure and you can make a good living doing this job!

The good...

This job is not for those that like to work alone, there is always something going on and can be noisy and chaotic. Very much a typical desk job, you'll be tied to the telephone and sitting at your workstation for long periods of time so it’s not a career for anyone who fears feeling office bound. Working as a telesales advisor can be one of the most exciting and rewarding starts to any career. The environment is vibrant, competitive and exciting. It is a very social environment with lots of opportunity to make new friends and meet new people.

...and the bad

This job can be very results driven but successful people are well rewarded. If you can't handle rejection, this may not be the job for you. A lot of telephone activity needs to take place to communicate with the right people; therefore, even with well-targeted and professional sales approaches, there will be some frustrating days.

We offer paid training, so even if you have no prior sales experience, you can be successful in this job. Come talk to us, you’ll be glad you did!
