RWANDA

WHAT YOU WILL DO

You will work with governments and donors, engaging senior leaders in public sectors on their most complex challenges by building capabilities for delivering priority projects and informing data-driven decision-making.

You will work alongside the Project Leader on the day-to-day execution of a client project while guiding and coaching the client’s team to deliver and sustain concrete results. This includes collecting data and performing analysis, preparing client reports and communication materials with the Project Leader's guidance.

You will work directly with clients – usually on the ground. You will facilitate problem-solving, collaboration, learning, and continuous improvement across silos. You will plan and execute stakeholder workshops and bring pace and focus to routine meetings.

You will engage in data collection and analytical processes and develop robust recommendations for presentation to the client. You will implement those prioritized recommendations with client team members.

You will have the opportunity to build on your leadership skills, working alongside diverse clients and DA colleagues.

You will have the opportunity to learn about the Deliverology approach, which is the basis for DA’s work around the world.

You will also have the opportunity to participate in and lead internal initiatives and contribute to the organization and the Africa region's growth.

As your career advances, you’ll take responsibility for projects, coaching junior colleagues, and eventually move on to the Project Leader role. Delivery Associates’ mentors and coaches will guide you to meet your individual needs every step of the way.
