M-KOPA is a fintech and digital financial services company that provides smartphones and a range of financial products to everyday earners across sub-Saharan Africa, operating in Ghana, Kenya, Nigeria, South Africa, and Uganda. The company uses an asset-financing model that allows customers to make an initial deposit on a smartphone and then pay it off through affordable daily, weekly, or monthly installments, building a credit history in the process. This approach has enabled M-KOPA to serve over 10 million customers and unlock more than $2 billion in credit for individuals who are largely excluded from traditional financial systems. M-KOPA's suite of services extends beyond device ownership to include digital loans, health insurance, device protection, and affordable data bundles, all designed to expand economic opportunity for low-income populations. The company also operates a large network of over 35,000 sales agents, many of whom are themselves beneficiaries of the economic empowerment model M-KOPA promotes. M-KOPA has been recognized among the world's top fintech companies and continues to scale its impact across the African continent. While M-KOPA is primarily categorized as a fintech company, its roots are in the renewable energy and pay-as-you-go solar sector, where it pioneered off-grid solar solutions for underserved communities before expanding into smartphones and broader financial services. This evolution reflects the company's enduring mission to connect underserved populations to transformative technologies and financial tools that improve quality of life and drive sustainable economic inclusion.

Warehouse Operations Intern | M-KOPA Ghana

📦 Where the magic actually starts.

Before a customer unboxes their first smartphone, before they access credit for the first time. Before they use that phone to run a business, pay school fees, or simply stay connected — someone had to make sure that device was set up, checked, logged, and ready to go.

That someone could be you.

M-KOPA is looking for a Warehouse Operations Intern to join our Logistics team in Ghana. If you're early in your career, love a hands-on environment, and want to see how a fast-growing African tech company operates from the inside — keep reading.

About M-KOPA

We've connected over 7 million customers across Africa to smartphones, solar energy, and financial services — unlocking $2 billion+ in credit for people who had never accessed formal financial services before. 86% of our customers say their quality of life has genuinely improved. We're building toward 10 million customers, and our warehouse team is a big part of how we get there.

What You'll Actually Be Doing

This is a real, hands-on role — not a "make-tea-and-sit-in-meetings" internship.

• Phone setup and prep — Configure PAYGO phones accurately following our approved process, working toward a daily target of 300 Ready for Sale units. Yes, 300. It's a rhythm you'll get into — and it feels great when you hit it.

• Order processing and dispatch — Help get the right stock to the right place at the right time. You're part of the chain that connects the warehouse to the customer.

• Stock management — Keep accurate records across Current Stock, Stock in Channel, and Total Sales. The numbers matter — a lot.

• Systems monitoring and reporting — Track devices using M-KOPA's internal tools and support basic operational reporting so the team always knows where things stand.

• Housekeeping and safety — Keep your workstation clean, follow 6S standards, and wear your PPE properly. A safe warehouse is a happy warehouse. 😄

What Makes You Ready

• You've recently completed school or have some early work experience — ideally in a warehouse, retail, or hands-on environment

• You're a quick learner who can follow processes carefully and consistently

• You've got great attention to detail — especially when doing tasks that need to be done the same way, every time

• You're comfortable with basic computer systems or happy to learn

• You're dependable, team-oriented, and take your responsibilities seriously

What You'll Take Away

More than just a line on your CV.

You'll build real operational skills, understand how stock management connects to sales performance, and develop the kind of workplace habits that open doors — in logistics, supply chain, retail operations, and beyond. You'll also be part of a team that's helping put life-changing products into the hands of customers across Africa.

Not bad for an internship. 🙌

What We Offer

• Hands-on experience at one of Africa's fastest-growing tech companies

• A structured, supportive team environment where you'll genuinely learn

• The satisfaction of seeing your daily work connect directly to customer impact

• A strong foundation for a career in logistics, operations, or supply chain

Ready to be part of the operation that puts M-KOPA products into customers' hands?
