Job Description
We are seeking strategic minds for our Internal Consulting Team based
in Nairobi. This team engages in internal consulting projects aimed at
improving internal operations and sharpening our overall strategy.
Analysts have the opportunity to develop and lead projects that directly
impact the rapid growth of our organization.
Projects fit into one of three categories:
- Operational Improvement projects designed to make us more efficient and effective. For instance, analyzing farmer repayment data then devising novel strategies to increase repayment. Such work involves extensive analysis in MS Excel and Access.
- Strategic Growth projects critically evaluate and refine One Acre Fund's growth strategy. For instance, determining which districts or new countries make sense for future expansion. Such projects require extensive secondary research, interviews and data analysis.
- Short–Term Assignments address immediate organizational needs through research and analytical support. For instance, consulting academic and scientific organizations to improve the design of a new crop trial. These projects require fast learning, leadership, and strong analytical and interpersonal skills.
Project work in all categories is fast-paced, with a heavy emphasis
upon analysis and research. They touch upon various internal functions
(e.g., Finance, Operations, Innovations) and impact all countries of
operation (Kenya, Rwanda, Burundi, Tanzania, and start-up countries).
Career Growth and Development
One Acre Fund invests in building management and leadership skills. Your manager will invest significant time in your career development. We provide constant, actionable feedback delivered through mentorship and through regular management consulting-style career reviews. We also have regular one-on-one meetings, where we listen to and discuss career goals, and work collaboratively to craft roles that each person can be passionate about. Because of our rapid growth, we constantly have new high-level roles opening up and opportunities in many functions. This results in fast career growth for our staff.
