Description

Location: Nairobi, Kenya (with travel across regions) Reports to: Managing Director About GreenBay GreenBay is transforming access to appliances across East Africa. We're the only platform combining AI-powered evaluation, certified refurbishment, warranties, and financing for second-life appliances—fixing the broken secondary market end to end. We've served 1,000+ customers, proven product-market fit, and secured funding to scale. Now we need a sales leader who knows how to build distribution networks that reach customers where they are. The Role We're hiring a Head of Sales to build and scale GreenBay's agent network across Kenya—a distributed salesforce that both sources trade-in inventory from communities and sells certified refurbished appliances to customers who need affordable, trusted products. Think Salesforce, but for appliances. You'll recruit, train, and manage a growing network of GreenBay Agents operating through branded collection/sales points—phone shops, electronics dealers, kiosks, and community hubs. You'll build the playbook, hire Area Leads, hit regional targets, and take GreenBay from 3 outlets in Nairobi to a pan-Kenya operation. This role is for someone who's built agent networks before—launching shops, training consultants, driving performance through data, and turning communities into customers.
