Job Title: Business Development Executive - Flex Tax

Location: Lagos, Nigeria
Job type:  Full time

About the Role

• We’re looking for someone who can speak confidently with micro and small business owners, understand their tax challenges, and help them adopt a better, more reliable way to manage compliance with Flex Tax.
• Most small businesses don’t have finance teams. The founder or owner handles everything — operations, payments, records, and tax. As a result, taxes are often done late, records are scattered, and penalties are common.
• Your role is to help these businesses move from confusion to clarity by positioning Flex Tax as a trusted tax partner, not just a tool.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Speak directly with business owners, founders, and operators about how they currently handle tax
• Guide businesses away from last-minute tax filing and penalties
• Follow up with prospects, handle questions, and close deals
• Work closely with the internal team to ensure smooth onboarding
• Build long-term customer relationships
• Identify gaps in record-keeping and compliance
• Explain Flex Tax clearly and simply, including VAT, WHT, PAYE, and CIT
• Show how Flex Tax keeps receipts, invoices, and tax reports organized in one place

What You’ll Be Selling
With Flex Tax, small businesses can:

• Turn daily expenses into structured tax records
• Keep receipts and invoices organised
• Know early when documents are missing
• Prepare audit-ready reports
• File taxes with confidence
• Avoid unnecessary penalties and fines.

Compared to the old way:

• No more searching WhatsApp, emails, or paper files
• No more Excel confusion
• No more last-minute surprises from regulators.

In this role, you’ll help businesses:

• Stay compliant
• Reduce risk
• Focus on growing their operations
• You’re not just selling software — you’re providing a reliable tax partner for small businesses.

Why This Role Matters:

• Many small businesses struggle with tax not because they are careless, but because they lack structure and guidance.

How Success Is Measured

• Number of businesses onboarded
• Revenue generated
• Customer retention and continued usage
• Quality of customer relationships.

What We’re Looking For

• Experience in sales or business development (SME-focused experience is a plus)
• Comfortable speaking with business owners and decision-makers
• Clear communicator who avoids jargon
• Confident, organized, and willing to learn
• Basic understanding of tax or finance is helpful but not required.
