About Jumia
Jumia's sellers rarely face the shopper: they work the supply side of the marketplace, signing and growing the brands, distributors and small merchants who list on it, and selling those vendors advertising and visibility tools such as Sponsored Products and Jumia Express on top. Key account managers own a category in one country (electronics and home appliances in Egypt, the home category in Kenya, appliances and TV at senior level in Ghana, a general portfolio in Senegal), negotiating terms, pricing, stock and campaigns like Black Friday and brand days with a brand's senior people and bringing in new large brands and distributors. Kenya also runs a tiered seller team: incubation agents find merchants through phone, referral and offline channels, take them through self sign-up and train them to their first sales, a long-tail lead runs the many small sellers through automated email, SMS and WhatsApp contact with a team of incubation and long-tail account managers under them, and a mid-tail associate carries brand and distributor duties close to a key account manager's. Offline, Jumia sells through its J-Force agent network, and regional sales network managers in Nigeria recruit and coach those agents and their city captains, run field activations and carry regional order targets, while a head of sales network in Uganda plans where to expand next. The way in for graduates is a two-year commercial trainee programme in Ghana, and the other seats ask for one to six years, ideally in e-commerce, FMCG, telecoms or field sales.

SalesJobs.Now is free for job seekers. Some links here pay us: a job ad network pays for a click on one of its sponsored jobs, a recruiting firm pays a referral fee when someone who came from here is hired, and a career tool pays a commission when you buy it. That costs you nothing and never lowers what you are paid. Roles whose links pay us can be placed higher in a list. "Featured roles" are openings an employer picked during a free trial with us; no employer can pay for that spot.

Pay at Jumia
Stated by the company, checked 2026-10-30From our research: stated by the company, checked 30 Oct 2026
Read from its postings on 30 Oct 2026: No sales posting names a salary, a commission or a bonus; each offers growth in an entrepreneurial company instead, and several close with a warning that Jumia never charges a fee to apply and takes applications only through its own careers site. The Ghana graduate commercial programme is the one exception on terms: a two-year fixed-term contract paid an intern allowance, which the posting calls above average, rather than a salary. Ask for the monthly pay in local currency, whether a key account manager's targets (sales of the category, advertising sold to its brands) carry a bonus and how often it pays, how a sales network manager's pay moves with the regional order target, and whether the J-Force agents they would manage are employees or paid on commission. The roles listed below state what Jumia posts now.
