Thndr is looking for a Head of Information Security to serve as the company's most senior security leader with full ownership of the information security program across, governance, risk, compliance, assurance, and engineering (security planning and operations). Reporting directly to executive leadership, you will set the vision and direction for how Thndr manages security risk, and ensure the security function is performing at the level the business and its regulators expect, balancing business agility with risk management.

Deputy Regional Manager (Sales) -Free State

M-KOPA

Free State4 months ago

Deputy Regional Manager (Sales)— M-KOPA Free State You've built sales teams that hit targets. You've coached reps who weren't performing and turned them into people you'd hire again. You know the difference between a team that's busy and a team that's producing — and you know exactly which levers to pull when the numbers start drifting. You're good at this. The question is whether your current role is giving you a canvas big enough for what you're actually capable of. M-KOPA is one of Africa's fastest-growing fintechs. We've served more than 7 million customers, unlocked over $2 billion in credit, and 55% of the people we work with are accessing formal financial services for the very first time. 86% report a meaningful improvement in their quality of life. We're not slowing down — we're building toward 10 million customers, and South Africa is a critical part of that journey. We're hiring a Deputy Regional Manager to lead a team of Field Sales Managers and Sales Executives on the ground — driving the kind of sales performance that doesn't just hit targets, but builds the customer base M-KOPA's next growth phase depends on. Why now, and why this role M-KOPA's growth from 5 million to 7 million customers happened fast and deliberately. Getting to 10 million requires the same intentionality — in every region, across every channel, at every level of the sales structure. This isn't a role that exists to maintain what's already working. It's a role for someone who can identify what's not working, fix it quickly, and then raise the bar again before anyone's settled. The Deputy Regional Manager sits at the centre of field execution — close enough to the ground to understand what's happening and senior enough to shape what happens next. What this role actually looks like Day to day, you'll be managing a team of Field Sales Managers and Sales Executives — directly involved in their performance, their development, and when necessary, their recruitment. You'll define KPIs across your sales teams, build the operational performance reporting that keeps everyone accountable, and implement incentive commission programmes that keep motivation high and tied to the outcomes that matter. You'll be the person who ensures every agent in your teams is fully equipped — trained on M-KOPA's sales methods, customer onboarding processes, and the product knowledge that makes the difference between a curious prospect and a committed customer. You'll also make sure the basics are never overlooked: that agents have what they need, from sales tools to territory clarity, to show up ready every day. Beyond day-to-day management, you'll define territorial and operational coverage plans for your sales force, track sell-outs across all channels, and develop the sales strategies — including expansion into new territories within your region — that keep M-KOPA's footprint growing. You'll work closely on sales forecasting, channel performance reporting, and the kind of data-driven insight that helps leadership make smart decisions faster. Critically, you'll also own the quality dimension of your team's sales activity. At M-KOPA, onboarding a customer means extending them credit — which means the screening process matters. You'll ensure your teams adhere to agreed customer screening practices and understand that sustainable growth is built on quality activations, not volume alone.

Retail Team Lead (Gauteng)

M-KOPA

Gauteng4 months ago

Retail Team Lead — M-KOPA Gauteng 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.

Retail Training and Quality Assurance Lead (Gauteng)

M-KOPA

Gauteng4 months ago

Retail Training & Quality Assurance Lead — M-KOPA Gauteng You know the difference between training that ticks a box and training that actually changes how someone works. You've seen what happens when a team gets genuinely upskilled — the customer interactions improve, the compliance scores move, the performance data tells a different story. And you've probably sat with frustrating quality audit results and thought: this is fixable, if we approach it differently. That instinct — the one that connects learning design to real operational outcomes — is exactly what M-KOPA is looking for. We're hiring a Retail Training and Quality Assurance Lead in South Africa to shape the capability and quality standards of our retail function — designing and delivering training for Stock Controllers and retail teams, leading quality audits across our operations, and using data to drive the kind of continuous improvement that shows up in customer experience and team performance alike. 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 — and our retail network is growing with us. As our footprint expands, the capability of the people inside it, and the quality of the experience they deliver, becomes more important than ever. This role is where that standard is set and sustained.
