CALL FOR RESUMES

Ethiopia Food and Agriculture System Transformation (FAST)

About DAI:

DAI is a world-renowned international development organization with over 50 years of experience focused on social and economic development challenges caused by inefficient markets, ineffective governance, and instability. We work with a wide range of clients, including national and local governments, bilateral and multilateral donors, private corporations, and philanthropies.

Job Descriptions:

DAI is seeking qualified candidates for multiple positions for the upcoming five-year USAID-funded Ethiopia Food and Agriculture System Transformation (FAST) program. The USAID/Ethiopia program will focus on facilitating private-sector-led growth that increases access to healthy diets for all while making the food and agriculture system more demand driven, competitive, inclusive, and sustainable. Furthermore, the program aims to create a more resilient agriculture system, responsive to shocks, stresses, opportunities and trends in production, markets, and operating contexts. This program plans to implement throughout Ethiopia with an envisioned Zone of Influence (ZOI) comprised of 132 woredas.

DAI is seeking qualified candidates with a passion for building the resilience capacities and overall livelihoods of Ethiopian communities. Please send us an application if you are a dedicated professional who enjoys being part of a dynamic team with previous experience on donor-funded programs and strong English skills.
