Sales Adviser: Entry-level Market

A sales adviser is an integral part of Sanlam, and is someone who is in the business of professional financial advice and planning. A sales adviser’s role is to meet the evolving needs of their clients throughout their lifetime.

This is achieved by forming professional relationships with clients; considering the client’s financial and personal situation in order to construct a financial plan and managing the plan in partnership with the client. This process requires our advisers to consider several financial needs including risk and savings needs.

Why You Should Join the Sanlam Entry-level Team

Sanlam is a company built on respect for what people are worth and an appreciation for what they can become. This is why we give each and every person who works at Sanlam the opportunity to make the most of who they are and to be recognised, respected and rewarded for what they’re worth. We inspire people to realise their worth. This is our commitment to our sales advisers.
