About This Role
This is a frontline commercial leadership position based in Adama, overseeing Transsion’s distribution network across the eastern region. You’ll be the operational link between the company and its agents, sub-dealers, and retailers—not just pushing volume but actively coaching partners on smart-phone sales and executing field promotions. It suits someone who thrives on constant travel, face-to-face negotiation, and hands-on problem-solving in Ethiopia’s fast-moving consumer electronics trade.
What the Requirements Say About This Role
The 3–5 years expected experience signals a need for proven field sales management rather than theoretical marketing knowledge. They’re looking for someone who can read a market map, spot underperforming retail outlets, and intervene with practical support—not someone who waits for instructions. Familiarity with dealer networks, inventory tracking, and competitor price monitoring is implied, so your track record in territory expansion or channel development will matter more than academic credentials.
How to Approach This Application
Emphasize specific achievements from previous roles—like percentage growth in dealer sales or successful promo launches—rather than generic duties. Since the role demands data collection and market analysis, highlight any experience with sales reporting tools or simple Excel dashboards. Prepare to demonstrate how you’ve resolved partner complaints in the past, as relationship management under pressure is clearly a core priority. Also, show willingness to be based in Adama and travel extensively across Oromia.
Who This Role Suits
This is best for a mid-career sales professional who enjoys being out in the field, building trust with small retailers, and can thrive without constant office supervision. Competition will be moderate—Transsion is a major brand, but the location and travel demands narrow the applicant pool.
