Global Alliance for Improved Nutrition Project Manager Jobs in Kenya

GAIN’s purpose is to advance nutrition outcomes by improving the consumption of nutritious and safe food for all people, especially those most vulnerable to malnutrition.

In particular, we aim to improve the consumption of safe and nutritious foods for—at a minimum—1 billion people over the next five years and target major improvements to food systems, resulting in more diverse and healthier diets for vulnerable people in countries where we work.

GAIN Kenya has been operational in the country since 2010 and has received funding to continue and upscale its country programs at least until 2020.

We are seeking to deploy a Project Manager who will oversee and implement the Marketplace for Nutritious Foods (the Marketplace) project in Kenya.

You will also oversee and assume responsibility for the on-time and on-budget implementation of the project’s main activities—Innovation Accelerator, Community of Practice, Technical Advisory Committee meetings, etc. You will also be responsible for the accurate and on-time gathering of project impact and indicator data and for the development of donor reports that are on-time, and of high quality.

As a Project Manager, you will carry out reporting technical and financial documentation responsibilities for all GAIN, donor and Government of Kenya requirements and act as point of contact between GAIN and the project’s beneficiaries (agribusinesses) and other stakeholders.
