KEY INFORMATION

Job Title: Help Desk Specialist

Sector: Social Protection; Governance; International Development

Position Type: Part-Time

Duration/Level of Effort: Short-Term

Position Location: Kigali, Rwanda


SUMMARY OF THE PROJECT

The FCDO has been a key partner in developing Rwanda’s social protection sector since the inception of the Vision 2020 Umurenge Programme (VUP) in 2008. The first phase of support to the social protection in Rwanda (2009-2014, £34m) focused on supporting the Government of Rwanda (GoR) to set up VUP. The second phase (2013-2018, £62.4m) focused on expanding the VUP, both in terms of geographical reach and in terms of reaching the most vulnerable and excluded in Rwanda.

The Exiting Poverty in Rwanda (EPR) Programme is the third phase of support and aims support people to exit poverty at the same time as protecting Rwanda’s poorest and most vulnerable citizens in the future. This is likely to be the last UK-funded programme supporting Rwanda’s social protection sector that involves financial resource transfer at this scale so greater focus will be on influencing the wider policy context for social protection (SP), strengthening systems and building capacity and building long-term sustainability.

FCDO’s support in this phase will go beyond the VUP programme to provide essential financial and technical assistance to support Rwanda to establish a robust, domestically financed, inclusive and comprehensive SP sector. The Technical Assistance (TA) Facility is therefore designed to support the effective implementation of its Social Protection Sector Strategic Plan (SP-SSP) and ultimately a strengthened national social protection system. To do so, the TA Facility provides technical expertise and capacity building to the Government of Rwanda, specifically the Ministry of Local Governments (MINALOC) and the Local Administrative Entities Development Agency (LODA) and supports the delivery of FCDO’s EPR programme.

The intended outcome of EPR is to enhance the resilience of vulnerable men, women and children and of the social protection system that helps sustain them. To achieve this outcome, the EPR TA facility will contribute towards the following outputs:

  • Developing institutional capacity and strengthening systems for evidence-based planning, strategic sector management, and effective SP service delivery enhanced.
  • Improving access to more effective core social protection programmes for selected vulnerable groups to more effective core social security instruments.
  • Design of a shock-responsive social protection (SR-SP) component together with operational guidelines and a system for implementing SR-SP established.
  • Strengthening linkages between SP and complementary services that enable sustainable graduation from extreme poverty strengthened.

As service provider to FCDO for the effective delivery of the EPR TA Facility, Cowater will implement the TA programme under four components as follows:

  • Design and manage a TA Facility to support implementation of the Government of Rwanda’s SP-SSP and FCDO’s EPR programme;
  • Deliver capacity building interventions through technical inputs and advice, training and workshops, mentoring and coaching of government technical personnel and undertake studies and research;
  • Drive forward the design, piloting and scale up of innovations within the Social Protection sector as set out in the SP-SSP and EPR Business Case, which includes work on graduation, shock responsive SP and categorical grants (moving towards universal coverage as per SP-SSP and Vision 2050).
  • Manage a TA Strategic Fund in close collaboration with GOR and FCDO.


SUMMARY OF THE POSITION

The TA Facility, funded by FCDO through the Exiting Poverty in Rwanda Programme has being supporting the efficient operation of LODA’s Monitoring and Evaluation Information System (MEIS) by the review of MEIS functionality for the VUP Components. LODA is preparing to roll-out improved components for Nutrition Sensitive Direct Support (NSDS) and Expanded Public Works home based Early Childhood Development component (ePW – HBECD).

The process for improving MEIS functionality for a component has three stages

Stage 1:  functionality revised and tested

KfW Development Bank (“KfW”) finances development projects in developing and emerging countries, mostly on behalf of the German Government.

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.

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;
  • The ability to integrate into a culturally diverse, interdisciplinary team;
