About the role

We are looking for results-driven Sales Executives who can identify the right businesses, reach decision‑makers, understand their operational challenges and convert qualified prospects into paying Simplebks customers.

• Develop your own prospect pipeline while also working company‑assigned leads.
• Reach and build relationships with business owners, MDs and other key decision‑makers.
• Conduct structured discovery conversations to understand the customer's business, current processes, challenges and priorities.
• Qualify opportunities based on business fit, need, urgency, decision‑making authority and ability to pay.
• Coordinate and participate in product demonstrations based on the customer's identified needs.
• Follow up consistently with prospects from first contact through proposal, onboarding and payment.
• Manage your sales pipeline and ensure all activities, opportunities and next actions are accurately recorded in the CRM.
• Work closely with the customer success and onboarding teams during customer evaluation and implementation.
• Maintain an ongoing commercial relationship with customers assigned to you after the sale and identify renewal, upsell and expansion opportunities.

Required profile

• 2–3 years of B2B SaaS or related sales experience, preferably selling to SMEs.
• Strong prospecting ability and skill at reaching decision‑makers.
• Excellent communication, relationship‑building and presentation skills.
• Persistence, discipline in follow‑up and ability to manage a structured sales pipeline using a CRM.
• Confidence speaking with senior business owners and ability to work independently while remaining accountable.

What we offer

• ₦150,000 monthly basic salary.
• Attractive commission on successful sales and additional earnings from renewals and account expansion.
• Ongoing sales and product training.
• Opportunity to grow as Simplebks expands its sales organisation.
