WE ARE BASH

Bash is South Africa's largest omnichannel shopping platform
. We connect over 500 brands across the physical and digital world, for millions of South Africans, every day. We're building something with real scale and real consequence.

We're founder led, a team of true owners and humble learners. We work hard, hold a high bar, and show up for each other. The problems aren't easy and the pace is real but when you break through, the impact is felt across the business and by the customers who rely on us.

If that sounds like the kind of place where you'd do the best work of your career
, we'd like to meet you.

Life at Bash

Bash is TFG's digital and omnichannel retail division. We build the technology, products, and commercial capability that connect 27 retail brands to customers. Our customers can shop online, in-app, and increasingly inside 3,400+ stores nationwide.

The work is hard, the hours are long, and we hold each other to a high standard. We're product and tech led but rooted in retail, which means everything we ship has to work at the counter, not just on a screen. We grow through every new person, every new idea, and through our collective wins and failures.
We are only just getting started.

Three teams, one mission: Catalogue
· Discovery & Shop
· Cart, Checkout & Post Purchase

Every product a customer sees on Bash - searches for, scrolls past, adds to their cart, and eventually gets a delivery notification about - passes through the systems Omnicom owns. It starts with wrangling catalogue data flowing in from every one of TFG's 27+ store brands and hundreds of labels, and building the pipelines that turn that into something to surprise and delight our customers.

From there it's the experience itself: search that actually understands what someone's after, display pages that load instantly and convert across web and app, and a cart that never buckles under load. Then checkout has to be frictionless, and everything after - order tracking, delivery comms, returns - has to keep people coming back for more.

It's a genuinely hard product-and-scale problem dressed up as "shopping." That's the part we like, and it all has to hold up when hundreds of thousands of people hit 'add to cart' in the same ten minutes on Black Friday.
