10 Job positions of ICPC Manager at RICEM COMPANY:Deadline: 14th April 2023

0

Rwanda Institute of Cooperatives, Entrepreneurship, and Microfinance (RICEM), a leading consulting firm for Supporting the Implementation of the Governance and Management Model for Piloted Integrated Crafts Production Centers (ICPCs) is recruiting to fill Ten (10) Manager roles in different districts’ ICPCs. Namely, Kayonza, Bugesera, Rwamagana, Karongi, Muhanga, Rubavu, Rusizi, Gisagara, Nyanza and Rulindo.


BACKGROUND OF THE ASSIGNMENT

In 2012, the Government of Rwanda initiated the establishment of Integrated Crafts Production Centers (ICPCs) in each District to increase and improve employment of local artisans. The ICPCs were created to serve as standardized and modern business centres that accommodate carpenters, tailors, and other artisans in one place for production and marketing of their products. Before the creation of ICPCs, artisans operated in scattered makeshift structures within residential areas. The establishment of ICPCs was also essential in facilitating technology transfer and technical skills development among the different operators within the ICPCs. Established centers contribute to the implementation of government’s National policies and strategies such as the National Skills Development and Employment Promotion Strategy (NSDEPS), Decent and productive jobs creation (NST1) and Made in Rwanda Policy (MiR).

Soon after their establishment, the different ICPCs started to report challenges with regards to the ICPCs management. ICPCs in each district was set up, however, without clear governance structure and a management model to strengthen them. Operators did not manage to organize efficiently the centers; moreover, essential skills were lacking as well as outdated technologies and equipment used in the centers. These challenges affected the competitiveness and reputation of ICPCs, therefore the need to set up the management structure of ICPCs.

Together with the Partners (MINICOM, MINALOC and RDB), GIZ supported the development of the ICPC management model and since July 2019 they started its implementation as a pilot in six selected ICPCs: Kayonza, Karongi, Muhanga, Bugesera, Rubavu and Rusizi. Later this pilot was extended to three more districts, namely Gisagara, Nyamagabe and Kirehe.

Through this support, GIZ /Eco-Emploi Programme (Now, GIZ/SD4T) provided the technical support in piloted ICPCs by assigning qualified managers responsible for all the operations in the centers, businesses’ development, and capacity building of operators in ICPCs.

Whereas another GIZ Programme focusing on the economic inclusion of refugees and host communities (ECOREF), supported ICPCs in capacity building and entrepreneurship development to ICPCs operators and graduates from vocational training institutions in Gisagara, Nyamagabe, Huye and Kirehe districts.

To ensure sustainability of the ICPC management model project, a national ICPC task force composed by MINICOM, MINALOC, RDB, BDF, GIZ and chaired by MINICOM suggested a continuation and replication of interventions and support in supported ICPCs and roll it out in all remaining ICPCs countrywide. However, due to limited resources and as it is still eminent to find a successful model it is agreed to select and bring in three additional ICPCs from March 2023 namely Rulindo, Nyanza, and Rwamagana.

To further achieve this, GIZ Skills Development for Economic Transformation (SD4T) hired RICEM Company to mobilize, equip, coach, mentor, assist and facilitate Ten qualified managers allocated in ICPCs and ensure their work effectiveness and result oriented daily business.

Within this optics, RICEM is hiring qualified Ten Managers for the districts’ ICPCs of Kayonza, Bugesera, Rwamagana, Karongi, Muhanga, Rusizi, Rubavu, Nyanza, Gisagara, and Rulindo.
