Sales & business development manager

• We are hiring a single, all-round candidate to be based in Tanzania to lead sales and business development for the region. Since this will be the first and only representative on-site initially, the candidate must be capable of independently handling the full spectrum of branch operations — sales, distributor and dealer development, warehouse and inventory management, import-export coordination, customer relationships, and overall day-to-day business and operational management.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop and execute the sales strategy for two- and three-wheeler spare parts across Tanzania and the wider East African region.
• Identify, approach, and onboard local distributors, importers, and wholesalers to build a strong sales and distribution network.
• Build and maintain long-term relationships with existing and new customers, ensuring high levels of satisfaction and repeat business.
• Conduct market research to understand demand patterns, competitor activity, pricing trends, and growth opportunities in the region.
• Manage the branch warehouse, including inventory planning, stock levels, storage, and timely dispatch of goods to customers.
• Coordinate import and export documentation, customs clearance, shipping, and logistics in line with Tanzanian and international trade regulations.
• Handle order processing, follow-ups, payment collection, and after-sales support in coordination with the Head Office in India.
