About Us
Koloso Application Technology Zambia Limited is an innovative for-profit edtech start-up. Work on project Koloso started in October 2022, and we loaded our first test version of the Koloso mobile app to the Android Play Store and the iOS App Store in March 2023.
Since then, we have undertaken testing with users and schools in Zambia and with users in the UK, and we have been making continuous improvements based on the feedback received. With a new version of Koloso due out in July, and with content that is growing every day, we are now preparing to go to market with the objective of issuing our first invoice and receiving our first subscription payment in September 2023.
Koloso is a platform designed and built around the concept of “social gaming for learning” for child and adult learning. Designed to become a multi-subject platform, Koloso is initially focused on mathematics and mental arithmetic.
We are committed to changing the way students learn and teachers teach by providing cutting-edge digital solutions. As a rapidly growing start-up, we are looking for a highly motivated and dynamic Sales and Marketing Lead to join our team and drive the sales and marketing efforts of our revolutionary EdTech product.

We all help each other, but right now there is nobody else in sales and marketing so you have to be ready to do everything until we build the business to the point that we can afford for you to start building your team!

• Monitor market trends, competitor activities, and industry developments to identify new opportunities and stay ahead of the curve.
• Prepare sales forecasts, budgets, and reports to track and evaluate sales and marketing performance.
• Represent Koloso Application Tech Limited at industry events, conferences, and exhibitions to expand our network and brand visibility.
