Sales Executive

Nairobi, Kenya

Sokev Studio makes and manages workwear, branded apparel and merchandise for organisations in East Africa: hotels and restaurants, hospitals and clinics, factories and construction sites, banks and corporate offices, schools and institutions.

Our Business Development Manager opens the large corporate accounts. You will be the person who keeps sales moving every day: you answer enquiries, produce accurate quotes, run samples and artwork approvals, hand orders over cleanly, and make sure clients come back.

A slow or wrong quote loses a deal, and a wrong order costs us money. This role exists to make sure neither happens. 

What you will do

  • Turn enquiries into quotes, fast
  • Follow every quote until it is a yes or a no
  • Run samples and approvals
  • Hand over orders cleanly
  • Look after existing accounts
  • Prospect in your own segment
  • Work with Finance on payment
Customer Relationship
Personal Evolution
Autonomy
Administrative Work
Technical Expertise

What you bring

  • 2 to 4 years in sales or customer-facing account work, ideally B2B. Be ready to share your sales numbers.

  • Experience in apparel, uniforms, printing and embroidery, promotional products, signage or similar custom-order products is a strong plus.

  • Accuracy with numbers. You can build a quote, work out a margin and spot an error before it reaches the client.

  • Clear, professional writing and phone manner, in English and Kiswahili.

  • Working knowledge of fabrics, size runs, minimum order quantities, sampling, and the willingness to learn them quickly.

  • Confidence using Excel or Google Sheets, Google Docs, email and a CRM.

  • A diploma or degree in business, marketing, sales or a related field

Who thrives here

You reply quickly and you do not drop follow-ups. You check details twice. You tell Production and the client the truth when a deadline is at risk. You want to grow into key account or business development work.
