Consultancy Jobs in South Africa

10X is disrupting the investment industry to help ordinary people like your mother, grandfather or friend, get dramatically better value for their long-term savings and lead more dignified lives in retirement.

The investment industry is largely self-serving, complex and expensive and produces poor value for most people – just ask anyone who has saved their whole life in a RA or pension fund or tried to understand how to invest at retirement.10X Investments (Pty) Ltd

10X is challenging this unjust industry by providing a simple, direct low fee investment solution. We’re on a mission to build a customer-centric tech-enabled company – think Amazon not CNA. We’ve got an outstanding eleven-year track record delivering industry-beating returns at lower costs with operational excellence and exceptional client retention. But we’ve only just started. We need great people to help us achieve our dreams. Sure, it’s a big challenge but what’s the point spending your life doing easy, unimportant, me too things?
