About Tafuget

Tafuget is a software company headquartered in Mwanza, building digital products and technology solutions for the local market. We’re looking for an energetic, organised Sales & Marketing Manager to own our commercial pipeline and bring structure to how we market and sell what we build.

The role

This is a hybrid commercial role: selling comes first, and a share of operational and marketing coordination sits around it so leads don’t go cold and the pipeline stays visible. You’ll be the main point of contact for prospects and clients, and the person who keeps sales activity, marketing content and CRM records organised and up to date. Reports to management; based in Mwanza; occasional travel to other regions.

Key responsibilities

Sales — primary focus

• Own the sales pipeline end to end: prospecting, outreach and follow-up through to closed deals.
• Conduct market research to identify new business opportunities and understand buyer personas.
• Present Tafuget’s products and services to prospective clients, and negotiate contracts and terms.
• Maintain accurate, up-to-date records of leads, pipeline stage and performance metrics in the CRM.
• Build and maintain relationships with existing clients, and develop new ones.
• Respond to inbound customer enquiries by call, chat and other channels.

Marketing & operations — supporting focus

• Plan and create content for social media and marketing materials that support the pipeline.
• Monitor competitors and market trends (pricing, products, positioning) to sharpen the sales approach.
• Keep client and prospect records, quotes and contracts organised and easy to find.
• Collect and route customer feedback and product-improvement suggestions to the team.
• Represent Tafuget at relevant community and business events.
• Support day-to-day office coordination as needed; other duties as assigned.

Required profile

Essential

• Diploma or Degree in Sales, Marketing, Business, or a related field.
• At least 1 year of experience in a sales and/or marketing role.
• Fluent Swahili and English, spoken and written.
• Comfortable with everyday digital tools — browsers, Google Workspace/MS Office, Zoom, WhatsApp Web — and quick to learn new ones, including CRM software.
• Based in or willing to relocate to Mwanza; open to occasional travel within Tanzania.

Strong assets

• Experience selling software, tech products, or other B2B services.
• Hands-on experience with a CRM system and structured pipeline management.
• Content creation skills for social media and basic marketing materials.
• Excellent negotiation, networking and relationship-building skills.
• Self-motivated, organised, and comfortable working with a degree of autonomy.

What success looks like in the first 6 months

• A visible, up-to-date pipeline in the CRM, with no follow-up dropped.
• New leads consistently generated and moved through to closed deals.
• Regular, on-brand marketing content published to support sales conversations.
• Client and prospect relationships that are well tracked, informed, and responsive.

Terms

• Full-time, 08:00–16:30, Monday to Friday; occasional Saturday work for urgent matters only.
• 6-month renewable contract, subject to performance.
• Base salary of TSh 400,000/month, plus a TSh 100,000 performance incentive paid on the 15th of each month.
• Salary reviewed for increase based on performance and company growth.
