VACANCY ANNOUNCEMENT

Portfolio Coordinator for Sustainable Economic Development projects in particular Technical and Vocational Education and Training and Financial Sector Development

Location: Kigali / Rwanda

1. Who we are

KfW Development Bank (“KfW”) finances development projects in developing and emerging countries, mostly on behalf of the German Government. We form part of the publicly-owned KfW Group, founded in 1948 and based in Germany, one of the largest bilateral promotional banks in the world. The 700 staff at our head office in Frankfurt, Germany and about 200 specialists in over 70 local offices cooperate with partners all over the world. Our goal is to support our partner countries in fighting poverty and accelerating sustainable economic growth, maintaining peace and protecting both the environment and climate.

In Rwanda, we have been a long-standing development partner, engaged in the priority areas of the Rwandan-German Development Cooperation, among others in Technical Vocational Education and Training (TVET) and Private Sector and Financial Sector Development as well as Information and Communications Technologies (ICT) and health.

2. Whom we look for

KfW Office Kigali is looking for an ambitious, experienced and highly qualified expert for the position of a National Portfolio Coordinator for Sustainable Economic Development projects in in at least two of the sectors Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET), Health, Information and Communications Technologies (ICT) or Financial Sector Development).

Our well-established portfolio focuses on the support of the development of a modern vocational training system. An economy cannot develop sustainably and on a large scale without a qualified non-academic workforce. In vocational training in particular, the training and teaching curricula are still poorly aligned with the actual needs of companies, and teaching infrastructure is inadequate.

KfW is also cooperating with Rwandan development banks to improve access to finance for small and medium-sized, mainly export-oriented companies. This helps to eliminate major development bottlenecks and thus contributes directly to job creation and stimulates exports.

You will be working in a diverse, challenging environment and offered an attractive remuneration package. You will receive on-the-job training in Kigali and join trainings held online and at our head office in Frankfurt.

It is envisaged that an employment period would start in December 2023.

In close collaboration with the portfolio managers in Frankfurt headquarters, and under the supervision of the Director of the KfW Office in Kigali, you will support the conceptual and organizational preparation, appraisal, management and monitoring of the projects in the areas of i.a. Technical and Vocational Education and Training and Financial Sector Development.

Your tasks include the following responsibilities:

• Observe and analyze the economic, political and other relevant developments in the sectors and explore potential future areas of intervention;
• Establish close and reliable working relationships with relevant counterparts in the Rwandan Government, German and international development partners;
• Support Rwandan partner institutions in implementing the projects, including financial monitoring;
• Contribute to project appraisal reports and support negotiation of financing contracts;
• Support and follow-up on project implementation, such as procurement processes, progress monitoring, reporting, flow of funds and processing of disbursement requests;
• Participate in sector meetings organized by Rwandan partner institutions and contribute to technical discussions;
• Prepare and support appropriate communication on the portfolio;
• Prepare and support project missions (e.g. by KfW HQ);
• Work closely with consultants and provide feedback on their reports;
• Work closely with project managers in Frankfurt and the team in KfW´s office in Kigali, actively identifying solutions to pending issues or persisting challenges.
• Support on other tasks in KfW´s office in Kigali.
  
  
  

4. Job related profile (know how and social competence related skills)

Requirements and skills are, inter alia,

• A strong academic track-record, demonstrated by a Master’s Degree in an economic or technical field from a reputed university with well above-average marks;
• Gained at least 7 years of relevant working experience, ideally related to the planning/implementation of projects in the area of Technical and Vocational Education and Training and Financial Sector Development (additional experience in ICT and/or health projects will support the strength of an application);
• Experience within development cooperation either in the Rwandan Government, one of Rwanda´s development partners, consulting or banking sector;
• Demonstrated a pro-active, solution-oriented and positive work attitude;
• Excellent analytical and problem-solving abilities, enabling you to break down complex tasks into concrete actions in order to meet tight deadlines;
• Excellent communication skills with the ability to express ideas clearly and effectively, both orally and in writing;
• An excellent proficiency in English, both orally and in writing. A good command of German would be a strong asset;
• Strong negotiation skills, able to understand other stakeholders’ interest and to develop mutually-beneficial solution strategies;
• Ability to establish working relationships with higher-level government officials and representatives from other development partners;
