New opportunities at the Tony Blair Africa Governance Initiative

On the cusp of a big expansion, Tony Blair's Africa Governance Initiative (AGI) is recruiting in two areas.

First, they are looking for team members to join their Rwanda and Sierra Leone projects as Strategic Advisers. Successful candidates will work in the heart of the government on key issues such as affordable healthcare, electrification, raising agricultural productivity, and sustainable mining, as well as on cross-cutting issues such as ministerial performance contracts, accountability systems and strategic communications.

Second, AGI is looking for the next generation of Country Heads to manage their governance programmes in Rwanda, Liberia, and Sierra Leone, and to establish new projects in Africa. Country Heads are responsible for setting and achieving the capacity development programme agreed with each partner government, for the security and well-being of project teams, and for managing budgets. As part of this second recruitment drive AGI is also seeking a new Director of Strategy and Development to be part of its London-based leadership team. The Director will develop and drive forwards AGI's organisational strategy, take responsibility for doubling AGI's income to support its ambitious growth plans, and lead AGI's communications strategy.
