Namati Global Network Associate Entry Level Jobs in Nairobi Kenya
Together with 1500 grassroots justice organizations in our network, Namati is building a global movement for legal empowerment: one capable of innovating boldly, mobilizing millions, and collectively tackling the greatest justice challenges of our time.
As we continue to scale, we’re searching for two Global Network Associates - one to be based in Nairobi, Kenya, and one in Washington, DC - who will join us and help welcome and empower every member of our global network.
Here’s what you might have tackled last week-
Hosted a webinar on how communities can use the law to address environmental harms. You helped international experts refine their presentations, promoted the event on social media, and managed the webinar’s live Q&A session. Next week you’ll interpret post-webinar survey results.
Booked flights and hotels for attendees headed to a high-profile event in Argentina, aimed at influencing the G20 to take up access to justice as a priority.
Sent out a network invitation to attendees of an access to justice and migration conference, and then helped these new members to complete the registration process and get acquainted with the discussion forum.
Read, summarized, and uploaded a new case study on a project drawing on paralegals to help reduce gender-based violence in Zimbabwe to our online resource database, which you then promoted on the network discussion forum as resource of the week.
Collated the results of a recent member survey, started organizing them into a compelling storyline, and created a few infographics to visualize key data points.
Conducted a phone interview with a grassroots justice organization in Vietnam for a member outreach and consultation initiative, then drafted a one-page profile of their work to be published on our website in an effort to raise the visibility of member organizations.
Hosted an informal network gathering of Kenyan members to elaborate on discussions initiated on online forum over lunch.
About you/must-haves for the position
A global outlook: You speak at least one non-English language proficiently, ideally French, Spanish, Portuguese, and/or Arabic. You are skilled and comfortable working and communicating with people from a variety of backgrounds and cultures.
Thorough and detail-oriented: You’re hyper-organized and detail-oriented by nature and take pleasure in letting no ball drop as you deftly juggle multiple projects. You’re extremely thorough and follow through on complicated, multi-step processes, always nailing deadlines.
Technologically savvy: You are good at troubleshooting, and comfortable using a range of online tools and apps to get work done
and to collaborate with a geographically dispersed team.
Proactive and resourceful: Although careful planning and execution define your work, you are positive and graceful when unexpected challenges arise. You quickly reorient and identify the best new course of action.
You possess the personal initiative needed to improve processes without prompting, and you feel comfortable working independently and managing your own time.
Collaborative and service-oriented: You’re comfortable working as part of a remote team spanning multiple time zones that is committed to a work culture premised on transparency, trust, and fellowship among colleagues. You’re known as a team-player who brings an “all hands on deck” mindset to all projects -- you’re happy to contribute however you can to advance Namati’s mission.
Growth-oriented: You’re always seeking to better yourself and your work, and you will push yourself to the peak of performance to help fulfill our mission.
In service of that growth, you welcome and delight in feedback from supervisors, peers, and anyone else.
Nice to haves
Data orientation: You know your way around programs that can help you to manipulate quantitative data, whether it’s Microsoft Excel, web applications, Salesforce, or APIs.
An eye for clean, compelling design: You have a good design aesthetic and are picky about things like inconsistent spacing and formatting. You have experience with graphic or web design programs, e.g. Adobe products, or comparable web applications.
Compensation
This is an entry level position, compensated commensurate with experience. Namati offers an excellent benefits package.
