Field Sales Representative - Mombasa

Poa Internet is on a mission to connect every Kenyan to affordable, reliable internet — and we need a driven Field Sales Representative to help us grow our customer base across Mombasa and its environs. This is a frontline, territory-based role where you will be the face of Poa Internet in your assigned area, responsible for identifying new customers, building lasting relationships, and consistently delivering on monthly revenue and growth targets.

If you are energised by meeting people, thrive in a target-driven environment, and are passionate about bringing connectivity to underserved communities, this role offers you a genuine opportunity to make an impact while building a rewarding sales career.

• Identify, prospect, and engage potential customers within your assigned territory in Mombasa and surrounding areas.
• Conduct daily structured sales visits and maintain an active, well-qualified sales funnel of prospective customers.
• Educate customers on Poa Internet's products and services, ensuring all interactions reflect the brand professionally and enthusiastically.
• Follow the prescribed sales process with 100% adherence, from first contact through to deal closure.
• Meet and exceed monthly sales targets as communicated by your line manager.
• Maintain a full attendance record and ensure 100% compliance with all required sales systems and tools.
• Submit accurate and timely daily sales activity reports to support pipeline tracking and performance management.
• Build and nurture strong customer relationships to drive referrals and long-term loyalty within your territory.

• Demonstrate at least 1 year of B2C sales experience with a verifiable record of owning and meeting sales targets — not just supporting a team, but personally accountable for results.
• Communicate persuasively and handle customer objections confidently, adapting your pitch to different customer profiles and income levels.
• Plan your own workday and territory coverage effectively, building a credible pipeline and forecasting conversion accurately.
• Show resilience and self-drive — you should be comfortable working independently in the field without daily supervision.
• Navigate low-income and informal settlement communities with cultural sensitivity and commercial awareness.
• Use digital sales tools, reporting apps, or CRM systems to log activities and track performance (prior experience with field sales tech is an advantage).
• Prior experience selling home internet, FMCG, or financial products in peri-urban or informal settings is a significant added advantage.

Poa Internet offers a competitive base salary in line with field sales market rates in Kenya, supplemented by performance-based commissions that reward reps who consistently exceed their targets. Compensation details will be shared during the interview process. Based on market benchmarks for this level, total monthly earnings typically range from KES 30,000 to KES 60,000, inclusive of base and commissions.

• Performance-based commission structure
• Field sales allowances (transport/airtime)
• Ongoing sales training and career development support

Ideal candidate: You have at least one year of hands-on B2C sales experience — ideally in telecoms, internet services, financial products, or FMCG — and you can point to specific targets you have met or exceeded. You are based in or very familiar with Mombasa, comfortable working in diverse neighbourhoods including informal settlements, and energised by daily face-to-face customer engagement. You are a self-starter who does not need to be pushed to hit the ground running each morning.

Do not apply if: You have no direct, individual sales target experience (e.g., purely support or admin roles), you are unable to commit to full-time field-based work in Mombasa, or you are looking for an office-based position. This role demands physical presence in the field every working day.

• Visit the Poa Internet careers page or the job platform where this listing is posted.
• Submit your up-to-date CV highlighting your sales experience, specific targets held, and results achieved.
• Include a brief cover note (optional but recommended) explaining why you are the right fit for a field sales role in Mombasa.
• Shortlisted candidates will be contacted for an initial phone screening followed by an in-person or virtual interview.
• No fees are required at any stage of this recruitment process — do not pay for certificates, assessments, or any other services as part of applying.
