About Smart Partners

Smart Partners is a consulting business founded by Tijani Iyemifokhae, whose professional background includes experience in business operations and practice development.

The company is recruiting Direct Sales Executives to support the sale and distribution of data bundles in Lagos. The position is focused on customer acquisition, product education and meeting sales targets.

Applicants do not need a university degree for this role. The vacancy requires a minimum of SSCE, together with relevant experience and the ability to communicate effectively with customers.

About the Direct Sales Executive Role

The Direct Sales Executive will promote and sell data bundles while helping new customers understand available plans and promotions.

The job involves regular interaction with customers, registering new users and keeping track of daily sales activity. Because the position is target-driven, applicants should be comfortable working toward daily, weekly and monthly sales goals.

An Android smartphone is also required for the role.

Key Responsibilities

The successful candidate will:

• Sell data bundles to customers.
• Identify and onboard new customers.
• Explain available data plans and promotions.
• Work toward daily, weekly and monthly sales targets.
• Register customers accurately.
• Prepare and submit daily sales reports.
• Maintain positive relationships with customers.
• Follow up with customers where necessary to support continued engagement.

Requirements

Applicants should meet the following requirements:

• Minimum of SSCE, WAEC, NECO or GCE.
• 1–2 years of relevant experience is requested.
• Must own an Android smartphone.
• Basic knowledge of mobile applications and the internet.
• Good communication and interpersonal skills.
• Ability to work toward sales targets.
• Self-motivated and willing to take initiative.

Previous sales experience is an advantage, although the vacancy states that it is not compulsory.

Who May Be a Good Fit?

This position may suit someone who enjoys interacting directly with customers and is comfortable working in a sales environment.

You do not necessarily need a long sales background to apply because previous sales experience is listed as an advantage rather than a mandatory requirement. However, you should be able to communicate clearly, learn the available data products and confidently explain them to potential customers.

An applicant who already has experience in direct sales, telecommunications, customer acquisition or retail sales can highlight that experience prominently on their CV.

Smartphone and Digital Skills

An Android smartphone is specifically listed as a requirement.

Applicants should also have basic familiarity with mobile applications and the internet. This is relevant because customer registration, product information and daily reporting may involve digital tools.

You do not need to claim advanced technical skills if you do not have them. Basic confidence using smartphone applications is the level specified in the vacancy.

Sales Performance and Customer Relationships

Meeting targets is an important part of the position.

The role requires the successful candidate to work toward daily, weekly and monthly sales objectives, while also maintaining good relationships with customers.

Good sales performance is not only about completing individual transactions. Understanding what customers need, explaining the available options clearly and maintaining professional communication can help support repeat business and customer retention.

How to Prepare Your CV

Your CV should focus on customer-facing and sales-related experience that matches the vacancy.

Where applicable, highlight:

• Direct sales experience.
• Customer acquisition.
• Lead generation.
• Retail or field sales.
• Telecommunications or data-product sales.
• Customer registration or onboarding.
• Achievement of sales targets.
• Customer relationship management.
• Daily sales reporting.
• Smartphone and mobile-app proficiency.
• Communication and interpersonal skills.

If you have previously worked with sales targets, include accurate examples of your responsibilities or results. Keep the information factual rather than adding numbers that you cannot verify.

Education Requirement

The minimum educational requirement is SSCE/WAEC/NECO/GCE.

Applicants who meet this requirement do not need to add unnecessary qualifications to their CV simply to appear more competitive. Instead, focus on relevant sales experience, customer-facing skills and your ability to work toward targets.
