Traidcraft fights poverty through trade. A Christian response to poverty, we are best
known as the UK’s leading fair trade organisation and are engaged in a wide range of
trade and development activities.
Our East Africa programme works to enable poor producers to grow their businesses,
find markets and engage effectively in trade. Our work is focussed on key themes
important in the East African context. This includes working in the tea and honey
sectors and in semi arid areas; and working to promote the availability of appropriate
business services to enterprises. The scale of our work in East Africa has grown in
recent years and now covers Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda. We are looking to
accelerate this growth in the years to come.
We are looking to recruit a Projects Officer to work as part of our team in Nairobi,
supporting the Regional Director in the development and management of the
Traidcraft programme. The successful candidate will be a proactive self starter, with
strong organisational skills and experience in a market-oriented business or NGO
programmes supporting small-enterprise development. A track record of successfully
developing and managing projects is important.
In return we can offer a competitive salary with 25 days annual leave plus public
holidays and flexible working arrangements as well as a contributory pension scheme
(where applicable) and free life assurance.
