We can't hire everyone... but we can help them shine somewhere brilliant.

Key Responsibilities Discover the opportunity: get deep with customers and agents in-market, frame the problem worth solving, and size the prize.

Own the model: define the commercial strategy and unit economics, and be accountable for whether the business is viable, not just whether it ships.

Build and lead: stand up operations and a local team, and grow both as the business scales.

Work across MOPO: partner with the Sheffield-based finance and technology teams and the China-based manufacturing teams to turn ideas into reality.

Report to the C-suite, help shape MOPO's long-term strategy, and have the standing to make the call to scale, pivot or stop.

Requirements An analytical, structured, rigorous and well-reasoned approach to solving problems.

High attention to detail and a strong sense of personal agency and ownership.

Comfort with ambiguity and uncertainty, and the ability to generate forward momentum despite limited infrastructure and incomplete data.

A willingness to travel extensively and spend extended periods in African markets and openness to relocating if the business needs it.

A legitimate interest in frontier markets, energy access, e-mobility or social-impact ventures. #J-18808-Ljbffr
