Job Description
Retail Sales Agent | M-KOPA – Western Cape
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:
You’ll also handle:
At the same time, you take full ownership of stock within your space:
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.
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
Customer questions, concerns, and after-sales support
Real-time problem-solving at the counter
Building trust through consistent, professional engagement
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
