We are currently in a business expansion process. Our South African offices are currently covering Southern Africa and Sub-Saharan African countries.
As a Business Development Manager, your challenge will be to raise awareness of the ALE brand and services for the assigned area, and establish contacts with clients which will ultimately lead to the provision of ALEs services.
