Commercial Assistant — Express Supply — Maputo

About the vacancy

Express Supply wants to strengthen its commercial team with a commercial assistant in Maputo. The opening comes at a moment when the company itself states, in the announcement, that it is growing — which typically means more clients to serve, more orders to follow up and more targets to hit. Natural ground for someone who genuinely enjoys selling.

Who is hiring

On its official website, Express Supply presents itself as a procurement and supply partner for companies — not a mere reseller. The house covers the full cycle: identifying suppliers, negotiating purchases, organising transport and logistics and making sure the client receives the order, with procurement consultancy supporting the whole journey.

The range of goods it moves is wide: spare parts and industrial consumables, generators and electrical material, hydraulic and pneumatic circuits, maintenance tools, pumping and fluid control gear, safety workwear and accessories, packaging supplies, office furniture, measuring and testing instruments, plus waste-handling and material-handling solutions — connecting Mozambican clients to local and international suppliers.

Before you apply: what the notice fixes — and what it leaves out

The recruitment notice is short. It names the company, the city, the profile sought and the deadline; it does not go into daily tasks or contractual conditions. So that you can apply without false expectations, we kept a clear separation: the REQUISITES field holds only what the announcement fixes, and the next section is an honest framing of the role, not a company list.

Your day-to-day, in broad strokes

Since the announcement does not list duties, this picture frames what a commercial assistance role in an industrial supply house normally involves — and it is not an official Express Supply list:

• Serve companies that need goods or services: understand the need and come back with a clear proposal;
• Prepare quotations and follow orders from first contact through to delivery;
• Log every interaction in the CRM tool — the announcement mentions familiarity with CRM, and this is what that means in practice: no lost conversations or forgotten promises;
• Keep an eye on the team''s numbers: the notice talks openly about hitting targets, which in sales requires regular control of results;
• Coordinate with purchasing, logistics and administration so that what was agreed reaches the client on equipa;
• Protect the company''s image in every call and every message.

Only the company itself can confirm the exact details of the role, during the recruitment process.

What we are looking for

Someone with an appetite for sales, comfortable talking to companies — the counterpart here is not the end consumer. The baseline the house requires is detailed in the REQUISITES field, point by point, with nothing added. The rest is posture: energy to start early, comfort with goals that get measured and attention to the details that make a client come back.

What this role teaches you

Selling in an industrial market is a school of its own: you learn to understand a technical request before talking price, to negotiate with someone who decides on behalf of an organisation, and to tie each sale to the logistics that make it real. For anyone who wants to grow in sales, the full cycle — prospecting, proposal, closing and after-sales —

is precisely what you train in a role like this, in a supply sector that keeps moving all year round. It is experience that later counts in interviews for more demanding commercial positions.

Salary and conditions

To be transparent: the notice is silent on salary, contract and benefits; we keep here only what it declares. What it fixes is the number of openings (one), the city (Maputo), the profile sought and the deadline. If pay and conditions are deciding factors for you, raise them in the first conversation — it is legitimate and shows professionalism.
