Overview

Country Lead Scout — ARED Edge Deployments (Commission) Jobs in Kenya at ARED GROUP INC

Title: Country Lead Scout — ARED Edge Deployments (Commission)

Company: ARED GROUP INC

Location: Kenya

HIRING: Lead Scout (Country/City) — ARED (Commission + Performance Bonuses)

We’re building a network of Lead Scouts across Africa to help us identify customers, qualify opportunities, and coordinate plug-and-play deployments of ARED Edge boxes with local install partners.

If you have strong local relationships and you can open doors fast, this role is for you.

Role Summary

As an ARED Lead Scout, you will:

• Find and qualify customers who need reliable local compute/connectivity (SMEs, institutions, ISPs, enterprise sites, government programs, integrators)
• Set meetings and drive proposals with our team
• Coordinate deployment logistics (plug-and-play) by either:
• becoming an install partner yourself or
• sourcing and managing a vetted local install partner

This is a high-impact role for someone who can build trust, move fast, and deliver clean, verifiable results.

What You Will Do (Responsibilities)

1) Lead generation & outreach

• Identify target accounts and decision makers in your territory
• Use your network to secure introductions and meetings
• Build a simple pipeline weekly (leads → qualified → proposal → closed)

2) Qualification (must be disciplined)

You will qualify each lead using a simple checklist:

• Who owns the decision?
• What problem are they facing (downtime, cost, connectivity, data, local hosting)?
• Is there budget (or a path to budget)?
• Timeline and urgency
• How many sites / boxes (even if starting with one)
• Basic site environment (power/internet availability, existing network)

3) Deal coordination

• Work with ARED to schedule demos, site visits, and proposals
• Collect required information (photos, address, site contact, constraints)
• Support contract closure and procurement steps

4) Deployment coordination (plug-and-play)

• Ensure the box arrives at the customer site
• Coordinate installation with a local installer (or yourself if certified)
• Confirm go-live using ARED acceptance checklist (photos + quick health report)

5) After go-live follow-up

• Check customer satisfaction in the first 7–30 days
• Identify expansion opportunities (additional boxes, referrals, more sites)

Who You Are (Ideal Profile)

Must-have

• Strong local network in one or more of these: SMEs, telcos/ISPs, enterprise IT, government programs, banks, logistics, health/education institutions, integrators
• Proven ability to get meetings with decision makers
• Comfortable with B2B selling and follow-up
• Highly organized: can manage a pipeline and report weekly
• Clear communication (WhatsApp + email + short calls)
• High integrity: comfortable with transparent, invoice-based commissions (no “facilitation fees”)

Nice-to-have

• Experience selling hardware, IT, connectivity, solar, security, enterprise solutions
• Basic understanding of networks (router, Wi-Fi, SIM/4G, uptime) — not required to be an engineer
• You already run a small tech/installation company (possible path to become installer too)

What You Must Be Comfortable With

• Working on performance: you earn more when you deliver results
• Following a strict qualification + deployment checklist
• Using a simple CRM/Google Sheet to track leads and status
• Being the “local face” of ARED in your territory

Compensation (Simple)

• Commission + performance bonuses, paid by milestones:

1. Qualified lead accepted
2. Contract signed
3. Go-live confirmed (acceptance test passed)

(Exact numbers depend on the deal size and country — shared during onboarding.)

Requirements

• Based in an African country/city (tell us where)
• Smartphone + reliable communication
• Ability to travel locally for meetings/site checks when needed
• Ability to provide invoices/receipts for payments (registered business preferred, but not mandatory at first)

What We Provide

• Sales deck + pitch scripts
• Pricing guidance + offer bundles
• Qualification checklist + site survey form
• Deployment acceptance checklist (plug-and-play)
• Training + continuous support from our team
