About This Role
This is a hands-on commercial role that blends strategic market planning with direct sales execution for a general business PLC operating in Ethiopia's automotive sector. You are not just marketing vehicles; you are expected to drive revenue by identifying corporate clients, managing dealer relationships, and overseeing the entire sales funnel—from lead generation to post-sale customer satisfaction. It suits a professional who is comfortable shifting between boardroom strategy, showroom operations, and digital campaign management.
What the Requirements Say About This Role
The 5-8 years of experience requested signals that the company wants someone who has already navigated the complexities of Ethiopia's import regulations, dealer networks, and corporate procurement cycles. They are not looking for a fresh marketing graduate, but a seasoned operator who can immediately step in and manage supplier coordination and internal logistics. The emphasis on pricing strategy and commercial proposals suggests you need more than creative marketing skills—you need financial acumen and negotiation experience.
How to Approach This Application
Your CV should highlight measurable outcomes from previous roles, such as percentage growth in sales leads or successful product launch campaigns you managed. Given the dual nature of the role, showcase any experience where you worked directly with corporate fleet buyers or government institutions, as these are high-value clients in the automotive sector. Employers in this space prioritize candidates who can demonstrate existing relationships within the local market and a clear understanding of the competitive landscape among vehicle importers in Addis Ababa.
Who This Role Suits
This role is best suited for an experienced marketing professional who is equally comfortable closing a B2B deal as they are running a social media campaign. It is likely a highly competitive position given the seniority level and the stability of a well-established PLC, so expect rigorous screening on your industry contacts and proven track record.
