M-KOPA

SALES TRAINING OFFICER | M-KOPA | MPUMALANGA You're good in a room. You can read an audience, adjust on the fly, and walk out of a training session knowing the people inside it are better equipped than when they walked in. Whether you've been doing this formally or you've discovered the skill inside a sales role, you know that real learning doesn't happen on a slide deck — it happens in the moment, when someone finally gets it. If you've been looking for a place where that ability genuinely matters — not just as a support function, but as a direct driver of business outcomes — this might be the role worth pausing for. Where you'd be doing it M-KOPA has just crossed 7 million customers across Africa, unlocking $2 billion in credit for people who've never had access to traditional financial services. 86% of our customers report a meaningful improvement in their quality of life. 55% are accessing these kinds of products for the very first time. We're a certified B Corporation with 2,300+ employees and 35,000 agents operating across multiple African markets — and we're accelerating toward 10 million customers. In South Africa, our field sales teams are on the ground every day in communities across MP, connecting people to smartphones, solar energy, and financial access they couldn't get elsewhere. The agents doing that work are only as effective as the training that prepares them. That's where you come in. Why this role exists now We're deliberately investing in the people infrastructure that will carry us from 7 million to 10 million customers. That means the agents joining our teams need to be ready faster, perform better, and stay longer — and the cluster leaders guiding them need to be developed, not just managed. The Sales Training Officer role exists to make all of that happen consistently across MP. This isn't a back-office training coordination role. It's a field-facing, relationship-driven position that puts you at the intersection of sales performance and people development — two things that, at M-KOPA, are the same conversation. What you'll actually be doing Your week will look different depending on where you're needed. Some days you're delivering onboarding sessions for new agents, walking them through product knowledge and the sales approaches that actually convert in the field. Other days you're running refresher sessions with existing agents or working directly with cluster leaders on how to coach their own teams. You'll use a range of facilitation methods — role-play, digital tools, scenario-based learning — because you know that one format doesn't fit every room. Alongside the facilitation, you'll own the administrative side: maintaining accurate records of attendance and assessment results, tracking what's working and what isn't, and feeding those insights back to Regional Sales Managers and the wider sales training team. You'll help prepare and refine training materials, coordinate logistics across multiple sites, and flag gaps in content before they show up as performance problems in the field. The MP geography means you'll be mobile — moving between training sites as needed. If you thrive on variety and don't mind being on the road, that's a feature, not a complication. What you bring * A diploma or degree in Sales, Business Administration, Training & Development, or a related field, paired with demonstrable experience in sales training, sales support, or a facilitation role. * Proven ability to deliver engaging, results-oriented training sessions — you're comfortable in front of a room and skilled at adjusting your approach when the group needs something different. * Solid working proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite, with the ability to manage training records, prepare materials, and track performance data accurately. You're organised without being rigid. You communicate clearly — in a training room, in a report, and in a conversation with a Regional Sales Manager. And you bring a genuine curiosity about what makes people perform better, not just what makes a training session feel good in the moment. The reality check This role moves at the pace of a sales business — which means priorities shift, schedules change, and the ability to adapt matters as much as the ability to plan. You'll work independently across multiple sites without close daily supervision, so self-management and follow-through are non-negotiable. If you're early in your career and looking for a role that gives you real responsibility, real visibility, and a clear connection to business outcomes, this is a strong place to build. Ready to help build what comes next? If the idea of developing the people who are changing financial access across South Africa sounds like meaningful work — and not just a job description — let's have a conversation. WHY M-KOPA? At M-KOPA, we empower our people to own their careers through diverse development programs, coaching partnerships, and on-the-job training. We support individual journeys with family-friendly policies, prioritize well-being, and embrace flexibility. Join us in shaping the future of M-KOPA as we grow together. Explore more at m-kopa.com.

M-KOPA

IN-STORE PROMOTER MANAGER / FIELD SALES MANAGER | M-KOPA | WESTERN CAPE You've built retail teams that hit targets. You've developed people who went on to outperform expectations. By most measures, you're doing well — respected by your team, trusted by leadership, delivering results that look good on paper. But when was the last time your team's work changed someone's entire economic trajectory? That's not a rhetorical flourish. It's the actual question that separates this role from most others you'd be weighing up right now. What M-KOPA is, and why it matters here M-KOPA has just crossed 7 million customers across Africa — up from 5 million not long ago — unlocking $2 billion in credit for people who couldn't access traditional financing. 86% of those customers report a meaningful improvement in their quality of life. 70% use our products to generate income. 55% are accessing digital financial services for the very first time. We're a certified B Corporation with 2,300+ employees, 35,000 agents, and proven operations spanning South Africa, Ghana, Uganda, and beyond. We've assembled 2 million smartphones in Kenya. We've financed over 4,000 e-motorbikes, saving riders $5.62 every single day. And we're moving deliberately toward 10 million customers. Retail is where that journey becomes real for most customers — and this role sits right at the centre of it. Why this role exists now If you've seen M-KOPA advertising multiple roles recently, that's not coincidence. The infrastructure that got us from 5 million to 7 million customers is not the infrastructure that gets us to 10 million. We're systematically building the leadership layer for our next growth phase — and this role is a deliberate part of that. In-store is where financial inclusion stops being a strategy and becomes a human moment. The person standing at the point of sale, helping a first-time customer understand what financing they can access — that's your team. Building the systems that make that moment simple, dignified, and repeatable across Johannesburg and Cape Town is the work. What makes this different Here's the honest contrast. In most retail management roles, you optimise existing processes, manage to KPIs that others have set, and measure your success in revenue. That's not a criticism — it's just what most roles are. This one isn't. Here, you'll build the playbook for how financial inclusion happens in retail across Africa. You'll shape regional strategy directly, not inherit someone else's. You'll partner with major retailers as an equal — not as a vendor chasing shelf space. And you'll measure success in growth targets and lives changed simultaneously, because at M-KOPA those two things are the same metric. Every customer your team converts isn't just a sale. It's someone gaining access to digital banking, education, remote work opportunities, and economic mobility they didn't have before. That context changes how your team shows up — and it changes how you lead them. What you'll actually be doing Day to day, this role moves across several dimensions at once. You'll lead and develop brand ambassador teams across two major metros, building the coaching systems and performance structures that make consistent execution possible. You'll analyse data to identify what's working and systematise it — turning field insights into strategy, not just reports. You'll manage relationships with major retail partners, ensuring in-store experiences reflect both brand standards and the nuanced customer conversations that financial services require. And you'll build career pathways for promoter talent — because the people doing this work well deserve to grow within it. The scope is broad. The autonomy is real. And the pace is high. What you bring * Extensive progressive experience leading retail or field sales teams, with a demonstrable record of exceeding performance targets while actively developing the people around you. * Proven ability to translate data into actionable strategy — you spot patterns before they show up in aggregated reports, and you turn those insights into decisions that move outcomes. * Established expertise in South African retail partnerships, with deep working knowledge of in-store dynamics, retailer relationships, and what makes a customer experience convert. You're not someone who needs the playbook to already exist. You're someone who writes it, tests it, and refines it — and you've done that before in environments that didn't always give you perfect conditions. The reality check This is demanding work. You'll hold team development, retailer partnerships, performance metrics, and regional strategy in the air simultaneously — and the pace won't slow down to let you catch up. Systems are still being built. Ambiguity is part of the job description. You'll need a high tolerance for change and a genuine appetite for figuring things out without a full map. What you'll get in return: your ideas get tested quickly, your impact is visible at a scale most retail leadership roles never reach, and your trajectory is tied directly to a business growing from 7 million toward 10 million customers. You'll work alongside people from 20+ nationalities solving problems that don't have obvious answers yet. If that sounds like exactly the kind of challenge you've been ready for, you're probably the person we're looking for. Ready to build the playbook for financial inclusion in retail? If you weren't actively looking but find yourself thinking this is different enough to explore — that's the signal. Let's have the conversation. WHY M-KOPA?
