Are you a highly driven field salesperson who enjoys building relationships, identifying opportunities, and closing deals?

Our client, a leading retailer of premium tiles, sanitary ware, taps, and building solutions, is seeking experienced Field Sales Executives to join its growing sales team across Thika, Ngong, and Nairobi.

This is a target-driven role that requires extensive field engagement, including regular visits to construction sites, hardware stores, contractors, developers, and other potential customers within the assigned territory. Successful candidates will use a company-provided motorcycle to travel within their designated locations while actively developing new business opportunities and growing sales.

If you have a proven track record in direct sales and enjoy spending more time in the field than behind a desk, this could be the ideal opportunity for you.

  • Deliver exceptional customer service throughout the sales process.

Territory Management

  • Plan and manage daily field activities within the assigned territory.
  • Maintain accurate records of customer visits, leads, quotations, and sales activities.
  • Monitor competitor activities and identify emerging market opportunities.
  • Provide regular market intelligence and customer feedback to management.

Product Demonstration and Sales Support

  • Present products using the company-provided tablet and webstore.
  • Explain product specifications, pricing, promotions, and product availability.
  • Coordinate with branch teams to ensure efficient order processing and customer support.
  • Provide in-store sales support when required.

Qualifications and Experience

The ideal candidate should have:

  • At least three (3) years of experience in field sales, direct sales, territory sales, or business development.
  • Proven experience consistently achieving sales targets.
  • Experience selling construction materials, building products, hardware, paint, roofing products, tiles, sanitary ware, cement, steel, or related products.
  • Demonstrated experience prospecting and developing new business in the field.
  • Strong negotiation and closing skills.
  • Excellent communication and relationship-management skills.
  • The ability to work independently with minimal supervision.

Preference will be given to candidates with experience selling to:

  • Contractors
  • Developers
  • Hardware stores
  • Construction companies
  • Architects
  • Quantity surveyors
  • Interior designers

Tools and Support Provided

The company will provide:

  • A company motorcycle.
  • Complete motorcycle safety gear.
  • Advanced rider training.
  • A tablet for product presentations and customer engagement.
  • A GPS-enabled motorcycle for field operations.

Application Process

Interested candidates are invited to submit an updated CV highlighting their field sales achievements, industries served, and experience developing new business opportunities.
