Telesales Representative Executive - Retention

M-KOPA

WE ARE LOOKING FOR A TELESALES REPRESENTATIVE - OUTBOUND TO JOIN OUR CUSTOMER RETENTION TEAM AND DRIVE SALES GROWTH BY CONNECTING EXISTING CUSTOMERS WITH M-KOPA'S LIFE-CHANGING PRODUCTS. This role offers the opportunity to be more than just a salesperson—you'll be the voice that introduces customers to opportunities they didn't know were possible. Every call you make connects an existing M-KOPA customer to products that could transform their life—a smartphone that opens up digital opportunities, a solar system that brings reliable light to their home, or a cash loan that helps their business grow. You'll achieve sales targets not through pressure, but through genuine connection and understanding. Working with a passionate Customer Retention team, your success directly supports our mission of making essential products and services accessible to underserved communities across Africa. ABOUT US We believe in empowering customers through affordable and accessible financial solutions. Our team values meaningful connections over transactional calls, customer loyalty over one-time sales, and sales techniques that genuinely help rather than manipulate.

You're calling existing M-KOPA customers—people who already trust the brand, who've already experienced our products, and who are genuinely interested in what else we can offer. You're not cold calling strangers about products they don't need. You're introducing upgrades, add-ons, and new offerings to people who are already part of the M-KOPA family. The conversations are warmer. The receptiveness is higher. The satisfaction of closing a sale comes with knowing you've genuinely helped someone access something valuable. IN THIS ROLE, YOU WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR: Sales Excellence & Growth * Driving sales growth by proactively introducing and selling additional M-KOPA products to existing customers * Implementing effective sales techniques to achieve and exceed campaign conversion and sales goals * Identifying customer needs and matching them with products that genuinely solve problems or create opportunities * Meeting and surpassing daily, weekly, and monthly sales targets through disciplined execution Customer Engagement & Relationship Building * Building and maintaining strong relationships with customers to foster long-term loyalty * Handling inquiries, concerns, and objections professionally and promptly turning hesitation into confidence * Creating conversations that feel helpful rather than pushy, consultative rather than transactional * Following up with customers to ensure satisfaction and identify additional opportunities Quality Standards & Call Excellence * Maintaining high call quality benchmarks by delivering accurate and complete information to customers * Ensuring every interaction reflects M-KOPA's values and commitment to customer care * Adapting your approach based on customer personality, needs, and communication style Productivity Goals & Performance Management * Meeting expected talk time and call handling benchmarks while managing interactions efficiently * Achieving daily and weekly targets through consistent performance and smart time management * Balancing quality with quantity—ensuring every call is both efficient and effective Feedback & Reporting * Maintaining accurate records of customer interactions in CRM systems * Providing regular feedback to the Telesales Team Lead on campaign progress, customer insights, and improvement opportunities * Sharing learnings that help the entire team improve performance This is an outbound sales role based in our Customer Retention team.
