Strategic Advisor – Ministry of State
The Africa Governance Initiative (AGI)is working for a future in which Africa’s development is led by Africans, with governments that are capable of setting and achieving priorities that reflect the rising aspirations and expectations of their citizens. To achieve this vision, we provide practical advice and support to help African leaders to bridge the gap between their vision for a better future and the capacity of their governments to achieve it. We work with countries – currently Sierra Leone, Liberia, Rwanda and Guinea but with plans for growth – that are at turning points and where we have had an invitation from the Head of Government to provide capacity development support.
AGI is now seeking exceptional individuals to join our organisation across a number of Africa- and UK-based roles. Salaryand package for each position will vary, but will be competitive within the international charitable sector.
Africa-based roles:
Liberia
We are currently recruiting for a new phase of the AGI Liberia Programme. We began providing support to the Government of Liberia in early 2010. Following President Johnson Sirleaf’s recent re-election we are now planning an extended and expanded second phase of work, in which we have been asked to continue our support to the Office of the President as well as launch new support to a number of priority ministries and agencies. In parallel, we will also be recruiting for a “Blair-Elumelu Fellow”, part of an innovative partnership with The Tony Elumelu Foundation, to build capacity in the National Investment Commission.
• Strategic Advisor – Ministry of State
We are looking for 1-2 exceptional candidates to work in the Ministry of State (Office of the President). The role(s) will be primarily based in a policy or programme delivery unit, supporting the establishment of cross-government delivery processes and mechanisms for monitoring priority programmes. As the programme expands the role(s) may also provide support to other units of government such as the Chief of Staff’s office, the Cabinet Secretariat, or the Ministry of Finance and Planning, again focussed on cross-government performance management systems.
How to apply
To apply, please send a CV and cover letter to Peter Childs Ltd at pca@peterchilds.co.uk.
In your cover letter, please specifically highlight which project and/or role you have an interest in, and your suitability for the role against the requirements above. The deadline for applications is close of play on 10 February 2012.
