Finance and Operations Director | Kigali, Rwanda | 2023

Chemonics seeks a finance and operations director for USAID’s live Teaching and Learning Materials (TLM) Market System Development cooperative agreement in Rwanda. This three-year, $6 million activity uses a market systems development approach to bring together stakeholders, identify points of leverage, and optimize the market’s functionality to strengthen the book supply chain in Rwanda and address the “business side of literacy”.

This Activity builds upon evidence and experience from USAID, the Global Book Alliance in Action (GBAIA), and the World Bank’s Results in Education for All Children (REACH) Trust Fund projects at the country level. By addressing inefficiencies, leveraging opportunities along the book supply chain and within the entire market system, and engaging stakeholders, TLM will strengthen the market system for teaching and learning materials and increase the quantity, quality, affordability, and accessibility of books and other reading materials (physical and digital) in schools, homes, and communities, contributing to improved reading outcomes.

The finance and operations director reports directly to the chief of party and will provide financial and operational oversight and management of the TLM budget, project costs, local office operations, and project staff support. This position will be based in Rwanda. This position is for a proposal. Employment is dependent on USAID selecting Chemonics as the prime recipient. The anticipated project is expected to start on June 1, 2023.
