[https://app.ashbyhq.com/api/images/user-content/1d985516-2a99-43c0-b591-957f5adaceb9/2c6957b4-39d2-40b3-8eb6-7e380a0c2f9c/B13.png] ROLE OVERVIEW As Regional Retail Operations Team Lead, you'll oversee retail operations across Enugu - managing stock reconciliation, inventory allocation, phone repairs, reverse logistics, and shop assistant support across multiple retail points.

You'll manage stock shortage mitigation, DSR holding levels, aged stock returns, cancellations, and payment collections. You'll coach shop assistants on processes and systems, develop retail strategies that support business objectives, train new Stock Controllers, and create virtual depot operations. You'll resolve operational issues as they arise and track shop assistant performance.

We now serve 10 million customers and have extended $2B+ in credit, backed by 2,300+ employees and 35,000+ field agents. 86% of our customers are satisfied, and 55% are first-time users of formal financial services. [https://app.ashbyhq.com/api/images/user-content/1d985516-2a99-43c0-b591-957f5adaceb9/ba282a12-7335-4f14-b5d0-85744a5ad867/B7.png] This is a hybrid role, you would be working from our office in Nigeria, partnering with a diverse group of employees from our different markets and locations across the UK, Europe and Africa.

You will be reporting to the Manager, Retail Operation. WHAT MAKES THIS DIFFERENT In most retail jobs, stock is a cost line. Here, it is the product that carries a customer’s credit journey. If a device is missing, a repair runs late or a DSR is out of stock, someone’s access to finance stalls. You will see the effect of your work in customer satisfaction, not just in a stock report. WHAT YOU'LL DO - Manage stock reconciliation across the region - reordering understocked SKUs, managing DSR holding levels within min-max, tracking aged stock returns and reallocations.
