Leadership That Keeps The Marketplace Moving
Thabiso Mokoena leads RentThisWall from our Braamfontein base with a clear focus on practical growth, tidy processes and strong relationships between property owners and advertisers. He has shaped the marketplace since 2013, making sure each enquiry is handled with enough detail to keep outdoor and wall advertising workable across Johannesburg, Pretoria, Cape Town, Durban and Bloemfontein. His approach is straightforward: if the space, consent and timing line up, the rest can follow without fuss.
Thabiso works closely with the wider team to keep the service grounded in what South African advertisers actually need, whether the campaign is local in Sandton or spread across several towns. He pays close attention to site suitability, booking flow and the realities of outdoor placements in areas where weather, dust, load-shedding and access can affect timing. That means less guesswork for clients and property owners, and clearer decisions from the start.
Marketplace Operations And Listing Control
Anele Dlamini oversees marketplace operations, keeping listings accurate and live where they should be. She checks that property details are current, availability is noted properly and the handover between owners and advertisers stays orderly. In a business where a small location detail can change the whole fit of a campaign, her work helps keep things tidy and dependable.
Bianca Naidoo supports the listings with content and photo handling, making sure the site material is clear, consistent and useful to advertisers. She curates images, tightens wording and helps present each space with enough context for a business to judge if it suits a wall mural, billboard wrap or other exterior advertising format. If a listing needs a cleaner description or a better site image, Bianca is usually the person polishing it up.
- Space listing setup for new and renewed sites
- Site photo curation and visual checking
- Listing copywriting that stays factual and concise
- Availability management for active spaces
- Listing renewal support when bookings are extended
Property Owner Relations With Clear Ground Rules
Ruan van Wyk manages property owner relations and is the person many owners deal with when they want to place a wall or billboard space on the marketplace. He understands that owners need clarity on what will be installed, how long it may stay up and what kind of consent is required before any advertising goes ahead. His role is to keep those conversations practical and to reduce back-and-forth that slows a booking down.
Ruan also helps guide owners through the basics of consent check processes, which matters because signage always needs the property owner's consent and local municipal bylaw approval. In places like Cape Town and Durban the paperwork can differ, and in Johannesburg or Pretoria the site conditions may vary block by block. His job is to keep the expectations plain, so owners know what they are agreeing to before any campaign moves forward.
- Property owner onboarding and follow-up
- Consent check guidance before booking
- Brief matching between site and campaign needs
- Support with renewal conversations and availability updates
Advertiser Support From Brief To Booking
Lerato Molefe works with advertisers to match campaign briefs to the right spaces. She helps assess where a message is likely to fit, whether the need is for a visible roadside wall, a prominent urban frontage or a larger outdoor format in a busy commercial area. Her work is practical and client-facing, with a focus on keeping the booking path easy to understand.
She also helps advertisers work through artwork requirements, timing and booking coordination, which is important when campaigns need to launch without delays. In winter months or during periods of strong wind, outdoor installations may need extra care, and Lerato makes sure the information around specs and scheduling is communicated clearly. She is often the link between what the advertiser wants and what the site can actually support.
Musa Khumalo handles campaign logistics, making sure the moving parts come together properly. He coordinates installation scheduling, monitors progress once a campaign is live and checks that the plan stays aligned with the agreed dates. His work suits the kind of practical detail that outdoor advertising needs, especially where access hours, weather or site conditions can affect a crew on the day.
Compliance And Municipal Checks
Pieter Smit manages municipal compliance coordination and helps keep the process within the right local rules. Outdoor advertising in South Africa can be affected by municipal by-laws, signage classifications and site-specific conditions, so Pieter checks the details that matter before work proceeds. His focus is on reducing surprises and helping both owners and advertisers understand what is required in plain language.
He works alongside the rest of the team on bylaw process support and artwork spec checks, which helps prevent delays when a municipality needs a certain format or a property file needs more supporting detail. In busy centres like Braamfontein or Midrand, that kind of preparation can save time. A bit of care at this stage often means fewer problems once the campaign is ready to go live.
- Bylaw process support for outdoor and wall space
- Artwork spec checking before production or printing
- Consent confirmation guidance with property owners
- Installation scheduling support where site rules apply
How The Team Works Across South Africa
Across Johannesburg, Braamfontein, Pretoria, Cape Town, Durban, Bloemfontein, Sandton and Midrand, the team works as one unit, even though each area has its own pace and local rules. The value is in the handover between roles: one person handles the listing, another checks the consent, someone else follows the booking and the compliance side stays in view. It keeps the marketplace practical for owners and advertisers who need certainty before they commit.
What ties everyone together is a preference for clear information, direct communication and proper follow-through. The team knows that wall and billboard advertising is not just about finding a visible space, it is about making sure the space is permitted, suitable and ready for use. When a client sends an enquiry through the contact page, the response comes from people who understand the site, the process and the small details that matter on the ground.
