Durban, South Africa M-KOPA Full time

Maybe you're a Product Manager working with a Data Science or Analytics team already or perhaps you're a Data Scientist on the cusp of becoming a Product Manager or Owner, practically doing this job in all but title?

**In both cases this could be a really exciting role pushing the boundaries in Credit risk and reporting, in a company where progress and humility are valued as highly as technical excellence?

These core objectives are delivered and supported by our Analytics and Data Science (ML) teams.

We foster a very low-ego environment at M-KOPA, a place where diversity, innovation and collaboration sit comfortably with commercial growth and social impact. The team prizes psychological safety above all. We have a Discovery first approach. Meaning you get to make very clear cases for prioritisation of the solutions we develop.

At M-KOPA, we empower our people to own their careers through diverse development programs, coaching partnerships, and on-the-job training. We support individual journeys with family-friendly policies, prioritize well-being, and embrace flexibility.
