A key output of this consultancy will be a finalised and approved ‘capacity building strategy’ which will outline why we want to have a long term presence in each of the new markets of Nigeria, Mexico and South Korea, and how we will go about achieving this. During the consultancy period, the consultant will be required to work closely with the business development team to embed this strategy in local and global funding proposals to ensure that we have the financial stability to continue operations beyond September 2020.
