Knowledge, Skills & Abilities:

·        A detailed doer - You have a track record of getting things done. You’re organised and responsive.  You take ownership of every idea you touch and execute it to a fine level of detail, setting targets and engaging others. You can multi-task dozens of  such projects at once and never lose sight of the details. Likely, you have some experience in a  start-up or other rapid-growth company. 

·        A creative problem-solver - Growing any organisation from scratch comes with massive and constant  challenges. On top of that, EIDU works in often fragile, sometimes volatile low-resource  communities and with complex government systems. You need to be flexible and ready to get  everything done effectively, quickly, and affordably with the materials at hand.  

·        An adaptive learner - You believe you can always do better. You welcome constructive criticism  and provide it freely to others. You know you only get better tomorrow when others point out where  you’ve missed things or failed today. 

·        A data-driven decision-maker - When making decisions, you don’t rely on your intuition alone. You  collect data, you analyse it and make decisions with clear justifications. 

·        A collaborative leader with strong relationship building skills
