Focus of the Role

Vision 2050 and the National Strategy for Transformation (NST1) set out targets for Rwanda’s transition to a high-income economy, built through private sector-led growth and human capital development. To achieve this will require sustained high GDP growth rates, expansion of the export base, and inclusive and job-creating public and private investment. Increasing economic competitiveness and expanding trade opportunities for Rwandan exports are central to these ambitions.

The Government of Rwanda (GoR) has developed the Made in Rwanda Policy (MiR Policy) to reduce the trade deficit and increase job creation by promoting exports, boosting local production and stimulating sustainable demand for competitive value-added products by addressing factors constraining their quality and cost competitiveness. The Ministry of Trade and Industry (MINICOM) leads the implementation of this policy.

  • Other duties as assigned by the Minister and Permanent Secretary

Person Specification

We are searching for an experienced Strategic Advisor to work closely with the Industry and Entrepreneurship Development Unit within MINICOM.

The Advisor will benefit from being part of the TBI Rwanda team, a network of experienced advisors based at the centre of government and in key ministries and institutions supporting the government’s agenda for economic transformation.

This is a role in a fast-paced government, working within complex policy areas that are highly scrutinised. The successful candidate for the role should be able to display the majority of the following:

  • A Master’s degree in Economics, Business Administration, Public Administration, Industrial Engineering, or a closely related field
  • At least 8 years of professional experience in research, consulting and/or technical assistance consultancy contracts with public or private sector institutions
  • Significant professional background in supporting a private sector led growth including working with Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises; experience in the manufacturing sector preferred
  • Strong analytical and research skills
  • Excellent interpersonal, communication, and reporting skills
  • Proven experience briefing senior government officials and/or executive officials in the private sector
  • Proficient in oral and written English; French would be an asset

Some background about VSO

Much has changed since VSO started 60 years ago. We’ve gone from being a UK charity to a truly global development organization. In 2016/2017 alone, we worked with over 7,000 volunteers from all over the world and from all backgrounds to deliver services that had an impact on the lives of almost 2.6 million people in the 24 countries where we work. Our programmes focus on the areas of health, education, and livelihoods, with an increasing emphasis on resilience building, social accountability, gender, and social inclusion. We believe progress is only possible when we work together and that strong partnerships are crucial to delivering positive change. That’s why we work with over 500 partner organizations, from local and national governments, to businesses, NGOs, funders, charities, and community groups. Currently, over 30% of our people are recruited from within the country in which they work, and we continue to grow the share of community and national volunteers involved in our programmes.
