-
Strong organisational and administrative skills, with the ability to contribute to and maintain partner management platforms, project trackers, and reporting tools
-
Excellent communication skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively across teams, with partners, and with funders
-
Ability to manage competing priorities and work while maintaining attention to detail
-
Commitment to Jangala’s mission and values
Desirable Requirements:
-
Experience in the technology, humanitarian, UK charity, or international development sectors
-
Familiarity with project management tools such as ClickUp or similar
