We are hiring, Head of Sales & Supply Chain

The Mission

Small-scale farmers in rural Africa are the backbone of the economy, but water access remains their biggest hurdle. We are launching an affordable portable solar pumps to change that. We don’t just need a salesperson; we need a strategist who can build the bridge between our technology and the farmers who need it most.

The Role

You will be the architect of a digital-first distribution network. Your primary objective is to move away from “hand-out” culture toward a “supported self-supply” model.

• App ecosystem management: Use the self-supply.com app to track inventory, manage QR-code discount coupons for NGO partners, and monitor real-time sales data.
• NGO & Donor relations: Pitch our “Live evidence” model to NGOs and donors—showing them how our app provides transparent, long-term impact data that helps them secure more funding.
• Dealer recruitment: Identify and onboard existing local agro-dealers across Sub Sahara Africa (starting in Zambia), training them to use the app for stock replenishment and quality control.
• Impact Storytelling: Use the data collected by the app to visualize growth and convince new partners to join the self-supply movement.

Who You Are

• The Networker: You have an active presence in the Zambian agricultural sector and deep ties with NGOs.
• Tech-Forward: You are comfortable using mobile apps to manage logistics. You understand that “data is the new currency” in the development sector.
• Entrepreneurial: You don’t just want to sell a product; you want to build a sustainable local economy where farmers invest in their own growth.
• Market expert: You understand the seasonal cycles of African farming and the logistical reality of rural provinces.

Why Join Us?

• Be at the forefront of the “Supported Self-Supply” revolution.
• Work with a transparent, data-driven system that eliminates the inefficiencies of traditional aid.
• Competitive salary + performance incentives based on ecosystem growth.
