RETAIL TEAM LEAD — M-KOPA NORTH WEST

Running a retail operation well is harder than it looks. It's not just the stock figures and the SLA reports — it's the staff

roster, the shop branding, the training gap you spotted last Tuesday, the depot owner who needs a conversation, and the customer

complaint that somehow landed in three different queues. It's knowing which of those to handle yourself and which to delegate, and

doing both without dropping anything.

If that description sounds like a normal week to you — and you're looking for a role where the scope is real and the mission

behind it actually means something — M-KOPA is worth your attention.

We're hiring a Retail Team Lead to provide leadership across our service centres, stock depots, and sales points in South Africa —

overseeing operations, driving customer experience standards, leading retail training, and managing the people and processes that

keep our retail channel performing.

What M-KOPA is building

We've served more than 7 million customers across Africa, unlocking over $2 billion in credit. 55% of those customers are

accessing formal financial services for the very first time. 86% report a meaningful improvement in their quality of life. We're

growing toward 10 million — which means our retail footprint is expanding, our depot and service centre network is scaling, and

the operational leadership that holds it all together matters more than ever.

What the work actually looks like

The breadth of this role is genuine. On any given week you could be reviewing service centre performance data, conducting a stock

audit, coordinating a shop renovation, running a training session for retail staff, resolving a Freshdesk ticket escalation, and

preparing a performance report for the Retail Operations Manager. No two weeks are identical, and that's by design.

Customer servicing is a consistent thread — you'll monitor performance across service centres, stock points, and depots, and work

closely with other teams to ensure customer issues are resolved without delay. When the standard slips, you'll identify it early

and act.

Stock management sits firmly in your remit. You'll supervise stock controllers, oversee inventory tracking, implement stock

control procedures, conduct regular audits, and coordinate with supply chain and warehouse to ensure replenishment happens on

time. Discrepancies get investigated, not ignored.

Shop management covers the physical and commercial aspects of M-KOPA's retail presence — brand execution, permits, look and feel,

branding materials, and maintenance. You'll work closely with the Retail Senior Manager and Marketing to ensure every location

reflects M-KOPA's standards and supports the customer experience we're committed to delivering.

Training is a dedicated part of the role rather than an afterthought. You'll develop and manage the retail knowledge base, own the

training schedule and materials, identify knowledge gaps across the team, and close them through structured training and process

improvement. Your direct reports include Retail Trainers — which means your investment in training quality has a multiplier effect

across the network.

You'll also manage Customer Care Executives, maintain CASAT and SLA reporting, drive policy and process adherence across all

locations, and support Depot Shop Owner activities including servicing, commercials, and commissions.

People management runs across all of it — building rosters, conducting performance reviews, managing recruitment and onboarding,

addressing employee relations issues, and creating the kind of team environment where people are motivated to perform.

What makes you ready for this

Proven experience in a team leader or supervisory role within retail operations — with a demonstrated track record managing

stock control, shop operations, and multi-site performance across service or depot environments

Strong working knowledge of inventory management systems and retail operations processes — including stock auditing, SLA

adherence, and the ability to identify operational gaps and implement practical improvements

The organisational capability and leadership presence to manage a diverse team including Retail Trainers and Customer Care

Executives — alongside the willingness to travel countrywide and the flexibility to handle a broad, fast-moving remit without

losing quality on any part of it

The reality check

This role covers a lot of ground — intentionally. You'll be across stock, people, training, reporting, customer experience, and

shop standards simultaneously, and the expectation is that nothing falls through the cracks. That requires strong prioritisation,

personal discipline, and the kind of proactive attitude that spots a problem before it becomes an incident. If you're energised by

variety and take genuine ownership of outcomes across a wide brief, you'll find this role rewarding. If you prefer a tightly

defined scope, it may not be the right fit.

Why M-KOPA, and why now

Most retail operations roles are about protecting what's already working. This one is about building what comes next. M-KOPA's

retail network in South Africa is growing — new service centres, new depots, new markets — and the Regional Retail Team Lead is

the person who makes sure that growth doesn't outpace our standards. The work you do directly shapes the experience of customers

who are, in many cases, accessing formal financial services for the first time. That's not a small thing.

If you're ready for a broad, demanding, genuinely consequential retail leadership role — let's talk.

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.

Sales Representative (North West)

M-KOPA

North West•Publicerad: 8 apr.•Sista ansökan: 16 aug.

SALES REPRESENTATIVE — M-KOPA (NORTH WEST) You know how to sell. More than that — you know how to get other people selling. You've built relationships in your area, you understand how to motivate a team when the month gets tough, and you have the kind of local knowledge that no training manual can give someone. The question is whether your current role is giving you the freedom, the backing, and the mission to make the most of it. M-KOPA is looking for a Sales Executive to recruit, lead, and grow a team of Direct Sales Representatives (DSRs) — putting M-KOPA's products into the hands of customers who genuinely need them, in communities you know better than anyone. What M-KOPA is building We've served more than 7 million customers across Africa, unlocking over $2 billion in credit. 55% of those customers are accessing formal financial services for the very first time. 86% report a meaningful improvement in their quality of life — and 70% use the products they finance through us to generate income. We're growing toward 10 million customers, and that growth happens one community, one DSR team, one sale at a time. Our product range includes smartphones, digital loans, device protection, health insurance, and mobile data. These aren't luxury items for people who already have options. They're tools that change how people live, earn, and connect — and the Sales Executive is the person who makes sure they're available where they're needed. What the work actually looks like You'll be responsible for building and managing your own team of DSRs — recruiting the right people, coaching them up, and holding them accountable to performance standards that keep everyone growing. You'll monitor and evaluate DSR performance regularly, identify where individuals need support or development, and step in with the kind of hands-on coaching that turns an average month into a great one. Beyond the team, you'll develop local networks that open up new sales opportunities — relationships with community members, local businesses, and anyone who can help M-KOPA reach more customers in your area. You'll manage DSR inventory, ensuring your team always has what they need to operate effectively, and you'll submit weekly activity plans and reports to your Regional Manager so that your progress — and your team's — is always visible. The targets are real and the accountability is clear. This is a results-oriented role, and success is measured in numbers. But the way you get there — the relationships you build, the team you develop, the community presence you establish — is what makes this more than just a sales job. What makes you ready for this * A track record in sales — ideally in retail, fibre, insurance, or a comparable field-based environment — with experience managing or mentoring a team of agents or representatives and a demonstrable ability to drive performance through people, not just personal output * Proven ability to build local networks and develop sales opportunities from the ground up, with the community knowledge, interpersonal skills, and self-motivation to operate independently in the field and consistently hit targets * Strong practical skills across team coaching, inventory management, performance monitoring, and reporting — with the energy, reliability, and sense of ownership that a field sales leadership role demands Formal qualifications are welcome but not required. What matters is what you've done and what you can demonstrate. A candid note on what this role requires Field sales is not a passive profession. You'll be out in your area, working alongside your DSRs, building relationships, solving problems, and keeping momentum going even when conditions aren't ideal. The targets don't pause, and the team looks to you to set the standard. If you're someone who gets energy from being in the field, takes ownership seriously, and finds satisfaction in watching a team member outperform their own expectations — this is your kind of role. Why M-KOPA, and why now A lot of sales roles ask you to sell products to people who already have plenty of options. M-KOPA asks you to sell products to people who've been waiting for them. The customers your DSR team will serve — many accessing credit for the first time, many using a financed smartphone or appliance to build their livelihood — are the reason this work matters beyond the commission structure. We're growing from 7 million toward 10 million customers. Every strong Sales Executive we bring on board is part of how that happens. If you're ready for a role that rewards your hustle, develops your leadership, and connects your work to something real — let's talk. WHY M-KOPA?

Retail Sales Agent - North West

M-KOPA

North West•Publicerad: 9 juli•Sista ansökan: 16 aug.

Retail Sales Agent | M-KOPA – North West Retail, but with real impact. You’re good with people. Now do something that matters with it. You already know how to run a counter, read a customer, and close a sale before they’ve fully made up their mind. You’ve likely been doing it for a while — and doing it well. But here’s the real question: Is what you’re selling actually changing anything? At M-KOPA, it is. And if that matters to you, keep reading. What M-KOPA is building — and why this moment matters M-KOPA has unlocked over $2 billion in credit for more than 7 million customers across Africa — many of whom were previously excluded from traditional financial services. In fact, over half of our customers are accessing financial products for the very first time. We’re now scaling toward 10 million customers, and South Africa is central to that growth. Our presence inside Pick n Pay stores places us directly where customers already are — and the Retail Sales Agent is the person who brings that experience to life. This is not just a retail role. It’s where sales, customer guidance, and stock accountability meet in one space — and where your impact is visible every single day. What this role actually looks like You operate from the retail floor — engaging customers, starting conversations, and guiding them through M-KOPA’s product offering: financed smartphones, cash devices, and SIM solutions. You don’t just sell. You educate, advise, and support decisions. That includes: * Walking customers through financing options clearly and confidently * Assisting with onboarding processes like RICA * Ensuring every customer leaves understanding exactly what they’ve signed up for You’ll also handle: * Customer questions, concerns, and after-sales support * Real-time problem-solving at the counter * Building trust through consistent, professional engagement At the same time, you take full ownership of stock within your space: * Daily stock counts and reconciliation * Receiving and verifying deliveries * Reporting discrepancies quickly and accurately * Maintaining organised, secure storage areas * Supporting sales reps with collections and returns * Contributing to monthly stock takes You’ll stay closely connected to your Field Sales Manager — sharing updates, navigating challenges, and celebrating wins. The support is there, but so is the expectation that you take ownership. Why this role is different from other retail positions Most retail roles are about selling what’s on the shelf. This one is about unlocking access. Many of the customers you’ll engage have never financed a device before. Some have been excluded from traditional credit entirely. When you take the time to explain, guide, and close — you’re not just making a sale. You’re enabling access to tools, connectivity, and opportunity. That’s what sets this apart. If you’re someone who: * Takes pride in doing the job properly * Naturally goes the extra mile * Finds purpose in helping people move forward Then this isn’t just another retail role. It’s a better one. What you bring * Proven experience in retail or sales, with the ability to engage, advise, and close effectively * Confidence in handling objections and guiding customer decisions * Strong attention to detail, especially when it comes to stock accuracy * Reliability and consistency — your team knows they can count on you * Matric / Grade 12 The reality This is a target-driven environment. You’ll be measured daily, weekly, and monthly — and consistent performance matters. It can be fast-paced. It can be demanding. You’ll deal with rejection, high foot traffic, and pressure to deliver. But if you’re: * Self-driven * Resilient * Energised by working with people Then this is exactly the kind of environment where you’ll thrive. You’ve already built the skillset. Now use it somewhere it actually counts. 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.
