About the company

National Healthcare Group, established in 2017, offers affordable private primary healthcare insurance products to South Africans who have previously been unable to access private healthcare.

An extensive doctor network, well situated throughout South Africa, and a hands-on business philosophy have allowed the group to develop an intimate understanding of the needs of the low-cost market. National HealthCare is accredited as an Administrator and Managed Care Organisation and provides a comprehensive range of healthcare services including provider network management, managed care, and administration services to more than 140,000 beneficiaries.

Initial access to care for NHC members is via a nurse on WhatsApp, making it simple and easy to connect with medical care rather than stand in long queues in public hospitals or having to phone doctor practices.

  • Lead a team of junior brokers/salespeople to meet or exceed sales goals and performance metrics.
  • Stay informed about changes in health insurance regulations, policies, and products.
  • Collaborate with internal departments (e.g., marketing, compliance, and operations) to streamline client services and team development.
  • Maintain high client retention through strong relationship management and post-sale service.

Requirements

  • Grade 12/NQF 4 Equivalent qualification
  • FAIS Representative Regulatory Exam Level 5 passed
