One Acre Fund NGO Program Manager Jobs in Tanzania

Job Description

Rapid organization growth translates into great career opportunities for our staff. We invest heavily in careers – we want to develop our next group of country directors, R&D directors, and partnership leaders. Example projects include:
Program associate management: Program managers directly manage 1-3 program associates and 10-100 local staff.
A program manager took the lead in setting up our newest government partnership operation, initially to pilot one project.
Within a year, this operation had fifty staff and is likely to at least quadruple in the coming two years, to hopefully 2-3 nationwide partnerships.
Sweet potato vine production: One Acre Fund farmers needed high-quality sweet potato vines in the 2013 season to avoid crop loss due to a maize disease. When these vines were unavailable in the quantity necessary, a program manager started a sweet potato multiplication farm to ensure all

farmers received quality inputs on time.
This included designing farm operations, hiring staff, negotiating contracts, coordinating logistics and managing more than 600 seasonal employees.

Qualifications

We are seeking exceptional professionals with

4-6 years of work experience with increasing responsibility, 2-3 years of direct management experience, and a demonstrated passion for international development.

Candidates who fit the following criteria are strongly encouraged to apply:

Demonstrated interest and experience in international development, requiring at least one year of living in a developing nation.

A willingness to live outside of a capital city, close to our customers for at least two years, minimum.

Top-performing undergraduate background (include GPA and test scores on your resume).
Strong work experiences.
Examples include professional work experience, or some kind of successful entrepreneurial experience (e.g. starting a field program in a developing country, leading a conference, starting a business, Peace Corps).

Leadership experience at work, or outside of work.

As we grow, One Acre Fund is seeking to add one new country per year to our operations.
We are seeking the kind of person that can be dropped into a country with significant support financially and logistically and can create from scratch a high-quality company in a very short time.

Qualifications

We are seeking exceptional professionals with 4 to 8+ years of work experience, and a demonstrated long-term passion for international development. They will serve in a career-track position that combines both field and management experience.

Strong work experiences.

We are seeking an entrepreneur who has previously grown an operation from scratch to hundreds of staff, or tens of thousands of customers, etc, in a developing nation.

And we want someone who wants to go back to scratch and do it again, instead of managing a large existing operation.

Like ability and humility. All of our country directors to date have grown up within our operation, learning directly from farmers in a start-up environment.

We value humility and like ability and wish to be joined by leaders that value the same.
