Tushop
We
are searching for a stellar Digital
Media Buyer.
Who we
are: Tushop’s mission is to reduce the cost of living for Africans,
together. Tushop is made up of an impact-driven team striving to build
something of value in this world.
We

company, we seek to make food and groceries cheaper for our customers, while
adding convenience, and helping farmers and manufacturers to sell their goods

we do has great impact:

· and we
help young entrepreneurs who run cyber cafes, beauty shops, and kiosks to
provide more value to their customers. We help anyone who buys food to be able
to do so more cheaply and conveniently.
· And we
help our own employees learn what they want to learn, build what they want to
build, and become who they want to become (and get paid doing so!)

Our
Core Values:
Reliable,
Innovative, Customer-centric, Ambitious, Do right by others (RICAD)
1.
We find reliability sexy. Our colleagues and customers know that we get things
done, well. We know that we are reliable by being excellent and consistent
executors.
2.
We are relentless in our pursuit of innovative and simpler ways of doing
things. The status quo is never good enough. The only constant is change, and
we seek it always for the better.
3.
Customers are at the center of what we do. We think hard about how we can
delight customers in big and small ways. We obsess about customers’ experiences
and don’t expend energy on bureaucracy, politicking, or competitors.
4.
Ambition is our fuel. We think big but know that everything starts small much
like the oak tree that starts out as an acorn. We want to build big businesses
and have big impact. We build with scale in mind.
5.
We do right by others because we want to have a net positive effect on those
around us – employees, peers, managers, customers, suppliers, farmers,
Community Leaders, citizens…and we take this seriously.
We
realize that sometimes doing what’s right might not be the most popular choice.
We also realize that we might not always get it right, and in such instances,
we take pride in course correcting.
Why
Tushop?
If
you’ve ever been curious to see the initial days of a company and be part of
that story, then this is your chance.
Since
we are at an early stage, you will be able to see and feel the direct impact of
your work. You will have ownership of your tasks and you will not be
micromanaged. You will make things happen. Lastly, you will work with a fun,
fast-moving, customer-centric, reliable, and supportive team.
Why not
Tushop?
· We
experiment a lot. If you like dotting all your i’s and crossing all your t’s
before making a move, then you might not enjoy working with us.
· We are
low-ego individuals. If you need praise, need to always be right, or need
someone else to fail to feel self-worth, this role is not for you.
· We
believe that fieldwork makes the dreamwork. We don’t hide behind laptops every
day; we instead thrive by engaging with customers, suppliers, partners, and
teammates on the phone and in the streets. (We find it invigorating – and hope
you’d find it that way too!)

this sounds like a role that is exciting to you, then come join us: APPLY HERE.
If
not, then please share this JD with someone who might be a great fit (and
become our customer!)
