Join Workhappy’s mission to help 670 million desk workers worldwide stay healthy and productive
🚀 About Workhappy: At Workhappy, we’re on a mission to transform workplace wellbeing globally. For over 10 years, we’ve been helping people stay healthy, happy, and productive at their desks through our two connected brands:
🖥️ Ergofy (Software): Our innovative SaaS platform delivers smart DSE (Display Screen Equipment) assessments and risk management dashboards to 350+ clients worldwide
👥 Workhappy Services: Our expert ergonomists conduct thousands of workplace assessments annually across 150+ countries, supporting major organisations including FCDO, Ocado, Ingeus, and UKTV. We’re addressing a massive global market of 670 million desk-based workers. With 36% growth last year alone, we’re scaling rapidly, and our Durban team is central to this exciting journey.
🎯 The Opportunity (This is NOT a Cold-Calling Sales Role) We’re expanding our Durban team from 4 to 5 people, and we need someone who thrives on variety, loves solving problems, and wants real career growth. This role is perfect for someone who wants to:
• Work with international clients without leaving South Africa
• Build genuine relationships rather than chase commission targets
• Grow into account management with a fast-scaling company
• Join a supportive team while having real autonomy and ownership. You’ll report directly to our UK Sales Manager, but work closely with your Durban colleagues daily.
We believe in giving you the tools, training, and trust to succeed.

• Handle weekly reporting and admin tasks that currently absorb 2+ team days
• Provide crucial backup during a colleague’s leave to prevent backlogs from building up
• Learn our systems, clients, and processes with full paid training.
After 6-12 Months (Growing Into Client Management):
• Proactively contact Ergofy clients via email and phone to keep them engaged and happy
• Take ownership of annual DSE assessment renewals, ensuring clients don’t lapse
• Monitor how clients use their allowances and help them get maximum value
• Start building your own client relationships and reputation. Long-Term Career Growth:
• Build, maintain, and grow relationships with our Workhappy services clients (thousands of organisations worldwide) • Take full ownership of your own client portfolio
• Develop into a proper Account Manager role as we continue scaling
• Potentially lead client relationship strategy for specific sectors or regions
✨ What We’re Looking For Essential Skills:
• Tech-savvy: You’re comfortable with spreadsheets, pick up new software quickly, and actually enjoy working with technology (we’re a tech company, so this is crucial)
• Strong communicator: Professional and confident in writing emails and making phone calls to clients
• Organised & proactive: You can juggle multiple requests, remember follow-ups, and spot problems before they become issues
• Durban-based: We want you to be integrated with our local team
• UK hours flexibility: Primarily UK business hours, but with reasonable flexibility. Personality & Approach:
• You genuinely care about client experience and take pride in solving problems
• You’re curious and ask questions rather than just following instructions
• You want to grow and learn; this role will expand significantly over time
• You’re comfortable working with international colleagues via video calls and Slack.
Bonus Points For:
• Previous experience with HubSpot or other CRM systems
• Background in customer success, account support, or client-facing roles

You’ll have:
• Real influence on how we deliver client service as we scale

We combine HSE legislative compliance, proactive ergonomic training, exciting wellbeing workshops and the best advice to get the most out of your investment. Many moons ago when we started out, we only did desk assessments, since then we have got bigger and bolder and now we offer a suite of wellbeing services. That said we still believe that workstation assessments are central to workplace wellbeing and are often overlooked and almost seen as a hassle. At Workhappy we see desk assessments or workstation assessments as a great way to engage with employees and get temperature check of where an orginisation is. The personal nature of the assessments often allows employees to engage directly and disclose details that are often overlooked, as well as allowing trained professionals to improve their workstation. Proper training , guidance and some small tweaks can make the world of difference to an employees comfort and wellbeing. At Workhappy we believe that taking care of your employees is more than a legal obligation, we see it as central to the success of any business. Countless organisations from startups to blue chips are putting employee wellbeing at the center of their business, and with good reason. Study after study is showing that organisations that are focused on wellbeing perform better than their competitors. That said workplace wellbeing can be a complex undertaking, with a deluge of information out there making it overwhelming. At Workhappy we work with you to design a tailoured wellbeing program that suits your organisation.
