Junior Business Development Executive

So-Creative is a digital marketing agency helping SMEs and enterprise businesses grow through web design & development, SEO & content, paid media, and AI/software solutions. We're a fast-growing, globally distributed team building a modern sales function from the ground up — and we're looking for a Junior Business Development Executive to help us do it.

The Role

We're hiring a South Africa-based, fully remote Junior Business Development Executive to join our growing outbound sales team, focused on winning new business in the UK market. You'll run outbound prospecting, qualify leads, and build pipeline across our full service offering, working closely with our Director of Sales and Marketing and a BDE team spanning South Africa, Dubai and India — a great role for someone early in their sales career who wants to grow fast in a scaling agency.

What You'll Do

• Set booked appointments daily — for yourself, the senior BDE, and the Director of Sales and Marketing — the core focus of this role.
• Prospect and generate new business opportunities in the UK market via outbound calls, email and LinkedIn.
• Qualify inbound and referral leads through to booked discovery calls.
• Manage your pipeline end-to-end in our CRM (Zoho).
• Pitch So-Creative's services — web, SEO & content, paid media, and AI/software solutions — to UK-based SME prospects.
• Work toward activity and pipeline targets as part of a collaborative, target-driven team, with support from senior BDEs.

What We're Looking For

• 3+ years' experience in sales, business development or marketing, with digital marketing and SaaS experience.
• Based in South Africa, with the flexibility to work hours that overlap with the UK and a globally distributed team.
• Some experience with outbound prospecting and working toward targets.
• Confident, clear communicator who can engage SME decision-makers.
• Comfortable working in a CRM-driven process and standard sales tooling, or quick to learn.
• A self-starter and eager learner who thrives in a fast-growing, early-stage environment.



What We Offer

• A full-time, fully remote role based in South Africa.
• A competitive, market-related base salary plus commission.
