IT Executive (Odoo ERP & IT Infrastructure)
Deadline: Sep 30, 2026

Match Masters Limiteds (MML) journey began in 1998 with a small operation on Magana Road, Kikuyu, Nairobi. It comprised a very basic match manufacturing plant, a tiny office and one distribution van. At the time, the challenges of running a match manufacturing business were many: we were the smallest manufacturer, competing with much more established brands, had limited presence due to market access in some regions only and limited technology.
