## Job Description

IT Jobs, Sun King Jobs. Responsible for owning the end-to-end user experience for PAYGo smartphone customers, sales agents, retailers, and field teams, mapping customer journeys, reducing friction in sign-up and device activation, improving repayment and support processes, conducting user research and experiments, and coordinating with commercial, operations, and engineering teams. Requires a degree in Design, Business, Technology, or a related field, with 8–10 years’ experience in UX product management or digital product ownership and strong user research. The position is based in Nairobi and offers hybrid work.

### Key Responsibilities

Customer Experience & Lifecycle

- Design and improve the experience a customer has from first contact with the programme through to completing their repayment and beyond.

- Map the full customer journey: discovery, application, credit assessment, activation, repayment, customer assistance, and upgrade.

- Identify and systematically reduce friction at every step — particularly in sign-up, identity verification, and device activation.

- Design the post-purchase lifecycle: repayment communications, customer assistance flows, and retention pathways.

- Ensure the experience is accessible and appropriate for users with varying levels of digital literacy and internet access.

Field Agent Experience & Tools

- Research how agents work on the ground — their daily workflows, pain points, and opportunities within their current tools.

- Design and improve the mobile apps and dashboards agents use to prospect, onboard customers, process sales, and track performance.

- Build a streamlined recruitment-to-first-sale experience for new agents joining the network.

- Ensure agent tools are fast, simple, and reliable in low-bandwidth environments across 11 markets.

- Create feedback loops so agent insight from the field continuously informs product prioritization.

Internal Field Staff Experience

- Examine how field staff assist agents — what information they need, how they access it today, and where gaps exist.

- Design and improve the internal tools field staff use to monitor agent activity, identify underperformers, and intervene early when an agent is struggling.

- Build visibility dashboards that surface the right signals — activation rates, repayment trends, agent productivity, stock levels — so field staff can prioritize their time in the field.

- Create feedback channels so field staff can surface product issues, market-specific barriers, and on-the-ground insight back to the product team.

Device Management

- Define the user experience of MDM: how customers are notified, what they can still access during a restriction, and how they restore full access.

- Own the MDM product roadmap: notification design, restriction framework, edge-case handling, and market-specific configuration policies.

- Work with credit, legal, and customer experience teams to ensure MDM policies are fair, transparent, and compliant across markets.

- Use research and data to examine how MDM events affect customer behaviour and repayment patterns.

Funnel Performance & Insight

- Define and track key experience metrics across all three user groups: customer activation rates and repayment behaviour, agent onboarding time and productivity, and field staff productivity.

- Use funnel data, drop-off reviews, and qualitative research to build a complete picture of where the experience breaks.

- Run structured experiments to test improvements and measure their impact.

- Communicate insight across the business — with commercial, operations, engineering, and country teams — so user experience evidence informs broader business choices.

Qualifications

- 8–10 years in UX product management, digital product ownership, or a closely related role — with clear examples of owning user experience end-to-end.

- Experience designing for multiple, distinct user groups simultaneously — ideally including both consumers and operational/field users.

- Track record of conducting or commissioning user research and translating findings into product improvements.

- Experience working in mobile-first, low-bandwidth or emerging market environments is a strong advantage.

- Background in consumer finance, telecoms, device financing, or distribution-heavy businesses is an advantage — but not essential.

- Experience working across multiple countries or markets with different regulatory and cultural contexts.

- A degree in design, business, technology, or a related field — or equivalent professional experience.
