JOB OPPORTUNITIES AT SAT (Southern African AIDS Trust), Zimbabwe

(1) Co-ordinator: Country Programmes

(2) Technical Officer: School Without Walls

SAT is a leading regional initiative that supports community responses to
HIV and AIDS and facilitates networking, skills exchange and lesson sharing
throughout the region. To increase the scale and impact of our work we are
currently recruiting for two positions based in our regional office in
Harare:

(1) CO-ORDINATOR: COUNTRY PROGRAMMES

SAT partners with community groups as well as national and regional advocacy
and networking bodies. In the next few years we plan to significantly
increase the number of partners receiving financial and technical support
through School Without Walls (see below). We also hope to expand SWW
activities and opportunities for community groups funded by other resource
providers. To facilitate this we will focus the role of the regional
secretariat and increase the size and autonomy of our decentralised country
operations.

The Co-ordinator for Country Programmes:

- Belongs to the SAT management team, with the Director, Deputy Director,
Finance Co-ordinator and Good Practice Co-ordinator. Significant
organisational management experience is essential.

- Leads the Country Programmes Team and supervises the Team's senior staff
in Harare and in our decentralised offices. Significant project and team
management experience is essential.

- Plays a significant role in the strategic expansion and strengthening of
SAT's country level activities, including proposal development, donor
relations and fundraising. Significant expertise in strategic planning and
resource mobilisation is essential.

(2) TECHNICAL OFFICER: SCHOOL WITHOUT WALLS (SWW)

Established in 1993, SWW is our pioneering initiative of south-to-south
skills training, lesson sharing, mentoring relationships and study visits.
In essence SWW is a network of SAT partners that learn from and teach one
another the practical know-how of community-level HIV and AIDS work.

The Technical Officer for School Without Walls:

- Leads the SWW unit. Significant project and staff management experience is
essential.

- Provides advisory services and technical support to SAT's country
programmes. Significant experience of community HIV and AIDS work is
essential.

- Plays a key role in new partner assessment, M&E and technical scrutiny of
partner proposals/contracts. Strong skills in participatory M&E and contract
vetting are essential.

- Organises and facilitates regional lesson sharing and skills training
workshops. Strong organisational and facilitation skills are essential.

If you are interested in either of these positions, see our website
