As a Sales Representative, you are the face of our brand. Your mission is to drive revenue by managing a portfolio of existing resellers, identifying new B2B opportunities across the island, and providing a premium advisory experience to walk-in customers in our showroom

 

Key Responsibilities

1. Field Distribution & Route Management

  • Execute daily "route-to-market" plans to visit hardware stores, supermarkets, and electrical retailers.
  • Ensure our products have maximum visibility and "shelf-share" compared to competitors.
  • Take orders on-site and ensure they are processed immediately through the ERP system.

2. Showroom Sales & Technical Advisory

  • Greet and assist walk-in customers (contractors, homeowners, and walk-in B2B clients).
  • Provide technical demonstrations of electrical products and explain the benefits of our FMCG range.
  • Convert showroom inquiries into formal quotes and closed sales.

3. Pipeline & Data Discipline

  • Maintain an up-to-date record of all client interactions and leads in the CRM/ERP.
  • Provide the Sales Manager with daily reports on market feedback, competitor pricing, and stock requirements.
  • Strict Follow-up: Track pending quotes and ensure no lead goes cold.

4. Collections & Relationship Building

  • Assist the accounts department by ensuring resellers adhere to credit terms and payment schedules.
  • Build deep, "first-name" rapport with shop owners and procurement officers across Mauritius.

Required Skills & Qualifications

  • Experience: 2–4 years in field sales. Experience in Hardware (Quincaillerie) or FMCG distribution is a major advantage.
  • Language: Fluent in Mauritian Creole and French (essential for field negotiation). Good command of English (for ERP entry and reporting).
  • Tech Savvy: Ability to use mobile sales apps and ERP software on a tablet or smartphone.
  • Persistence: A "never-give-up" attitude toward follow-ups and closing deals.
  • Mobility: Must possess a valid Mauritius Private Car License.

The "Ideal Candidate" Traits

We are looking for someone who is proactive—they don't wait for the phone to ring; they are out in the field making things happen. They should be able to pivot from a technical conversation about electrical components to a volume-based negotiation for FMCG goods seamlessly.
