Sales Representative (North West)

M-KOPA

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.

M-KOPA

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.
