Executive Manager (m/f) African Eco-Labelling Mechanism

As Executive Manager, you will be a member of the project team that develops and institutionalizes the AEM in close cooperation with relevant regional, continental and international organisations. You will play a key role in ensuring the project's success and in achieving the objectives agreed with BMU in line with the Marrakesh Process. You will be responsible for the implementation of the programme strategy and for the promotion of the AEM across the continent and internationally. Together with the partner organisations as well as other members of the project team, you will lead the project so as to ensure the long-term sustainability of the AEM programme.

In this context, you will work closely with the Executive Board, AEM programme coordinator, the project manager responsible for the contract and cooperation at GIZ’s Kenya Office and colleagues from GIZ headquarters in Germany who will support the project implementation, particularly as regards developing the standards and benchmarking system and drawing up a marketing concept. You will coordinate and support economic and political networking for AEM. You will be required to report progress of project implementation to the AEM Executive Board biannually.

To ensure the long-term viability of the AEM program it is highly desirable that you develop a commitment to the AEM beyond the project phase.
