ActionAid International Communications Advisor Job in Nairobi Kenya

ActionAid is an international anti-poverty agency working in 42 countries, taking sides with poor people to end poverty and injustice together.

International Communications Advisor

Based in Nairobi, Kenya

40,289 - £53,290 plus pension, medical, life and travel insurance etc. (Please note the benefits do not include international expatriate benefits such as education, housing etc.)

We seek to employ an experienced, committed, enthusiastic and talented individual as an International Communications Advisor, Africa.

At ActionAid, we do things differently. We focus on the people that others forget. People in poverty. People who face discrimination. People whose voices are ignored. We work with them to help them have a say in the decisions that affect their lives.

Now, as we embark on our next five-year strategy, communications is set to become a much stronger, more integral part of our vision for change. This post will be pivotal to that change.

Reporting to the International Head of Communications, you will be a strategic thinker, and your leadership qualities, technical skills, and collaborative approach will have a transformative effect in our communityled programmes across Africa, in our national and international advocacy work, and in our popular fundraising and campaigning work around the world.

The key responsibilities of this position include offering strategic direction and support to national and international teams, building capacity of national communications teams across Africa, and supporting development of quality content to drive media, campaigning and fundraising.

There will be one person reporting to this post, to deliver operational work, and it’s possible we may grow an Africa communications team in the future.

The successful candidate will need to understand the challenges faced by our national communications heads, and so must have substantial experience in a similar role, either nationally or regionally.

We would like to see candidates with formal qualifications – for example a Masters degree in journalism, communications, new media, marketing or another related discipline – or a first degree and at least 10 years’ working experience.

You will need proven skills in strategic communication planning; media relations; brand and reputation management; digital communications; campaigning and in mobilising citizen engagement. You will be fluent in written and spoken English. Fluency in another language (especially French) will be a plus.

To apply submit your curriculum vitae with a motivation letter to vacancies.africa@actionaid.org

Closing date: 22 June 2011.

While we value all applications, we can only respond to short listed candidates. Whilst all applicants will be assessed strictly on their individual merits, qualified women are especially encouraged to apply.
