Working in Africa and South Asia, we have doubled the size of our operations and reach of our programmes in the past three years and have ambitious plans for the next five years.

As part of these plans, the organization is looking to further develop the livelihood-focused programmes it has been delivering over the past 10 years.

Policy-level experience related to livelihood development is desirable.
