Employer: Kontak Recruitment Sales and Account Manager (JB6034) LocationRemote - Open to candidates based in South Africa SalaryR25 000 - R35 000 basic per month + commission (based on experience). Employment Type:Independent Contractor | Full-Time This UK-based company specialises in helping landowners unlock the commercial potential of their land through biodiversity, renewables, and natural capital projects. Think solar farms, habitat creation, rewilding, and long-term land value strategies. It's an industry that's booming, backed by legislation, and only getting bigger.
