Teljoy was founded in June 1969 and launched with a campaign that gave people the opportunity to book a television for rent when TV eventually came to South Africa. After much deliberation and perseverance, TV was allowed in South Africa. Teljoy and its founder Theo Rutstein installed the very first TV set in South Africa in December 1974. Teljoy was the very first company in the country to supply TV sets commercially in South Africa. A few decades later, Teljoy still offers fantastic benefits on rent-to-own options. With dedicated staff, enthralling product offerings, fantastic benefits and excellent service, we give you the better way to get the things you want. At Teljoy you can rent-to-own household appliances, electronics and furniture at affordable prices with added benefits, that include: • Shopping and applying online - we will deliver and set-up the unit in your home at no additional cost • Upgrade, downgrade or return the unit at any time. • We’ll cover the maintenance, risk cover and the TV licence during the rental period, at no additional cost to you. At Teljoy, we seek talented individuals who share in our passion and the commitment to live and deliver their best within our organisation and specialised teams. We value our employees and are constantly ensuring a balance between our performance-driven culture and a fun working environment. In order to continue our accelerated growth, we seek talented individuals who believe in our offering and who will execute our vision with passion, energy and enthusiasm. If this is you – we want you!
