About the role
As an Employee Value Banking Consultant at Standard Bank, you will be the face of the bank inside companies and workplaces. Your core focus is acquiring, servicing and retaining clients through the Employer Value Banking model. That means running onsite activations, bank days and workplace engagements that introduce employees to bundled banking solutions for their personal and business needs.
You will build strong relationships with company decision makers and employee groups, conduct needs analysis and recommend the right transactional, lending and investment products. Part of the role involves identifying clients who qualify for Private Banking and Prestige offerings and migrating them into those segments. You will also be expected to deliver against sales targets through proactive hunting, cross selling and growing a quality portfolio.
This is a client facing role that combines relationship building with solid product knowledge. It suits someone who is comfortable presenting to groups, commuting to client sites and working independently to hit targets.
