About the role
We are looking for a Sales Executive - Okuta, Kwara State to join our Sales Team as we scale up and drive digital and financial inclusion across our markets.
About Us At M-KOPA, we've grown to serve 7 million customers across Africa, unlocking $2+ billion in cumulative credit for people who couldn't access financial services before. Our retail shops in Ghana are the last-mile access points where this happens—where customers build trust, where our agents deliver impact, where financial inclusion becomes real. As we scale from 7 million to 10 million customers, retail excellence is non-negotiable. Every audit you conduct directly protects millions of customer transactions. Every variance you investigate, every fraud signal you catch, every process improvement you identify—these aren't just compliance tasks. They're the infrastructure that enables our customers' financial inclusion. You'll be setting the audit standards for Ghana that become our template as we expand, working with shop teams, warehouse staff, and leadership to ensure operational integrity that matches our mission. Role Overview Imagine leading a team that isn’t just selling products but creating connections and empowering people in your community. As our Sales Executive, you will be the force behind the scenes, monitoring and delivering sales targets, developing local networks, and ensuring that every customer interaction reflects the values that make M-KOPA the trusted brand it is today. Success in this role will rely on your ability to recruit, train, and mentor a field-based team of Direct Sales Representatives (DSRs). You will guide them, challenge them, and help them exceed their targets by crafting powerful sales and marketing strategies. Your leadership will shape their success, and by extension, the success of the business. What You'll Need Your experience in Sales within FinTech, Microfinance, Telecommunications, FMCG, or related industries will be key to identifying growth opportunities and maximizing performance. Your sales and negotiation skills will ensure that you surpass your targets, while your expertise in team motivation and leadership will inspire your team to do the same. You will have the chance to build strong relationships not just within your team but with every customer, constantly learning and adapting in a fast-paced environment.
