We’re looking for a dynamic Business Developer who can spearhead innovation and drive strategic partnerships with key industry stakeholders.

  • Building Strong Networks – Cultivating relationships with key decision-makers to influence product specification.
  • Technical Support & Consultation – Providing guidance on design, application, and installation processes.
  • Driving Market Conversion – Encouraging a shift from traditional materials to this innovative technology.
  • Collaborating with Fabricators – Supporting partners in growing their sales, marketing, and technical capabilities.


Requirements

What We’re Looking For:

  • Industry Expertise – Minimum 5 years’ experience in fenestration (windows/doors), either in fabrication or sales.
  • Sales & Market Development Experience – At least 3 years in a customer-facing role within the sector.
  • Technical Knowledge – Ability to read and interpret building plans, as well as proficiency in fenestration design/quoting software (or willingness to learn).
  • Communication & Presentation Skills – Confident in engaging architects, developers, and fabricators, with the ability to conduct professional presentations.
  • Innovative Mindset – Someone who enjoys finding creative solutions to influence the market and build long-term business relationships.
  • Self-Starter & Road Warrior – Comfortable with work from Home and extensive travel across the Western Cape / Garden Route region. 

 

Why Consider This Role?

  • Be at the forefront of a major industry shift, introducing an innovative and sustainable fenestration solution.
  • Engage with multiple stakeholders, from fabricators to architects, developers, and builders—ensuring no two days are the same.
  • A strategic role that’s about market development, not transactional sales.
  • Autonomy & Flexibility – Work independently while making a tangible impact on the industry.
