Join our Ghana Sales team! We're recruiting a Regional Manager to take dedicated ownership of one of M-KOPA's most geographically
ambitious corridors — spanning Bono, Bono East, Ahafo, and the Northern Regions. You'll build a high-performing team, shape your
own strategy, and lead from the field across some of the most dynamic and underserved markets in West Africa.
The Impact 💚
Your leadership will directly unlock financial access for everyday earners across Ghana's mid and northern regions. We've now
served over 7 million customers across Africa, unlocking more than $2 billion in credit since we began. Every FSM you coach, every
cluster you grow, every agent you develop is a direct pathway to financial inclusion for people who have been shut out of formal
systems their entire lives.
The Opportunity
🎯 Mission-driven sales leadership: You'll own a corridor that stretches across distinct regional markets, each with its own
dynamics and untapped potential. Your decisions will directly shape how M-KOPA grows in Ghana.
🏆 Global recognition: Join a company named by TIME 100 as one of the world's most influential and by the Financial Times as
Africa's fastest-growing for five consecutive years (2022–2026).
🚀 Scale challenges: You'll be leading 12 Sales Executives and 21 territories across geographically dispersed regions — building
management depth, densifying existing clusters, and driving expansion in markets that are ready to move.
🌱 Environmental impact: We're carbon-negative, having avoided over 2.155 million tonnes of CO₂ emissions to date.
🔼 A deliberate pathway: This role has been designed as a route to Head of Sales. We're looking for someone ready to grow into
that seat.
What You'll Do
At M-KOPA, you'll own regional performance end-to-end: sales delivery, productivity, people discipline, and sustainable growth
across Bono, Bono East, Ahafo, and the Northern regions. You'll set strategic direction, lead from the field, and hold your region
to the highest standard — building the machine and running it. Our sales teams own their clusters from territory strategy through
to agent livelihoods, combining data-driven execution with purpose-driven field leadership that creates real financial inclusion
across Ghana.
Your Environment 💼
growing, and ready for stronger leadership
Our Sales Approach 🚀

What You Need
This is not a typical Regional Manager role. You'll be handed genuine ownership of one of M-KOPA's most strategically critical
corridors in Ghana — with the autonomy to build your team, shape your strategy, and make real decisions. If you love being in the
field, thrive under pressure, and find deep satisfaction in watching people grow under your leadership, this role will energise
you.

ÜBER SALONKEE Wir bei Salonkee glauben, dass Friseure und Beauty-Expert:innen ihre Zeit mit Handwerk und Kreativität verbringen sollten – nicht mit Zettelwirtschaft. Als eines der am schnellsten wachsenden SaaS-Unternehmen Europas bieten wir Salons eine Komplettlösung: von der smarten Online-Buchung bis hin zu automatisierten Zahlungen. Wir suchen für Hamburg und Umgebung ein neues Teammitglied, das die gesamte Region strategisch verantwortet, unser Team vor Ort weiterentwickelt und gemeinsam mit uns wächst. DEINE ROLLE Du bist das Gesicht von Salonkee in unserer Region Nord. Deine Aufgabe ist es, aus einem starken Vertriebsteam eine schlagkräftige – perspektivisch mehrstufige – Organisation zu machen und dabei nah am Markt und und unseren Zielen zu bleiben. * Team- & Regionsaufbau: Du verantwortest Auf- und Ausbau des Teams in deiner Region. Aktuell führst du die Vertriebsmitarbeitenden direkt; mit wachsendem Team baust du perspektivisch eine eigene Teamleiter-Ebene auf – und entwickelst deine stärksten Talente selbst dorthin. * Strategische Marktentwicklung: Du kennst den Markt in Hamburg und Umgebung im Detail, bist selbst regelmäßig vor Ort bei Terminen und Live-Demos – um deine Teammitglieder zu coachen, aber auch Marktpotenzial, Wettbewerb und Ansatzpunkte für deine Region einzuschätzen. * Kundenakquise & Betreuung: Gerade in der Aufbauphase deiner Region scheust du vor aktivem Vertrieb selbst nicht zurück: Du gewinnst aktiv neue Kunden durch Kaltakquise und agierst dabei als Role-Model für dein Team. * Pipeline-, Gebiets- & Kennzahlensteuerung: Du verantwortest CRM-Pflege, Pipeline- und Gebietsmanagement sowie Forecast für die gesamte Region, denkst dabei unternehmerisch und leitest daraus frühzeitig Maßnahmen ab. * Führungskräfteentwicklung: Du coachst nicht nur Reps, sondern baust bewusst die nächste Führungsebene auf – durch 1:1s, Trainings und ehrliches Feedback, mit dem Ziel, Teamleiter:innen aus den eigenen Reihen zu entwickeln. * Zusammenarbeit mit dem Back Office & Headquarter: Du arbeitest eng mit dem Back Office zusammen, um reibungslose Abläufe und eine durchgängig gute Kundenerfahrung sicherzustellen. * Das Große-Ganze: Du stimmst dich eng mit dem Head of Sales Germany ab und bringst Kennzahlen, Personalthemen und Marktfeedback aus deiner Region strukturiert ein. DAS BRINGST DU MIT * Erfahrung im Außendienst: 3–5 Jahre Erfahrung im Vertrieb von SaaS-Lösungen bzw. digitalen Produkten (idealerweise B2B, Außendienst/Field Sales). Reine Account-Management-Erfahrung ohne Außendienst-Hintergrund passt für diese Rolle nicht. . * Erste Führungserfahrung: 1–2 Jahre Erfahrung in der Führung eines Vertriebsteams (z. B. als Teamleiter:in oder in vergleichbarer Rolle) – du hast bereits gezeigt, dass du andere entwickeln und motivieren kannst. * Unternehmerisches Denken: Du verstehst Kennzahlen, Forecasts und einfache P&L-Logik und triffst darauf basierend Entscheidungen für deine Region. * Strukturierte, eigenständige Arbeitsweise: Du planst und steuerst eine ganze Region eigenständig und setzt dabei die richtigen Prioritäten. WARUM SALONKEE? * Sicherheit & Erfolg: Ein attraktives Gehaltspaket aus Fixum & Provision, das Verantwortung für eine ganze Region wirklich belohnt. * Dein Firmenwagen: Auch zur privaten Nutzung – damit du in deiner Region immer flexibel bleibst. * Freiraum & Verantwortung: Wir vertrauen dir die Steuerung einer ganzen Region an. Deine Arbeitszeit gestaltest du so, wie es für dich und dein Team am effektivsten ist. * Echte Perspektive: Ein klarer Karrierepfad – baue dir mit wachsendem Team deine eigene Teamleiter-Ebene auf. * Echte Benefits: 50 € monatliches Guthaben (steuerfrei) via Probonio für deine persönlichen Bedürfnisse sowie regelmäßige Teamevents, die diesen Namen auch verdienen. Klingt nach deinem nächsten Schritt? Wir machen es kurz: Schick uns deinen Lebenslauf. Nach Eingang deiner Bewerbung melden wir uns schnellstmöglich bei dir. Salonkee steht für Chancengleichheit und Vielfalt. Wir bauen ein Team auf, das so bunt ist wie die Ideen, die uns antreiben, und laden Menschen mit den unterschiedlichsten Hintergründen, Perspektiven und Fähigkeiten ein, Teil unserer Reise zu werden. Gemeinsam schaffen wir einen Arbeitsplatz, an dem sich alle respektiert, geschätzt und inspiriert fühlen, ihre authentische Persönlichkeit einzubringen. Wir freuen uns darauf, dich kennenzulernen und gemeinsam die Region Hamburg zu erobern!

As Regional Sales Manager, you'll manage up to 10 Territory Managers, each leading their own network of self-employed field sales consultants.
