Job Description
Background
SNV is currently tendering for the Africa Clean Energy Business (ACE) programme, component 1: TA and Knowledge Management. Our consortium brings almost 30 years of experience in delivering results in the off-grid energy market, benefitting the urban and rural poor (with a focus on women and girls) in Sub-Saharan Africa. Our ability to deliver in an effective, value-for-money manner is underpinned by our continuous in-country presence and infrastructure in over 20 African countries.
Overview of the position
We are looking for a Team Leader to lead the implementation of the ACE programme, respectively in Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Malawi, Mozambique, Nigeria, Rwanda, Senegal, Sierra Leone, Somalia, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia and Zimbabwe. The programme supports the implementation of policies, regulatory and other actions developed by the Energy Africa Compacts. These aim to improve the enabling environment for a market-based approach to private sector delivery of solar home system (SHS) products and services, and to ensure that the potential of off-grid solar energy to increase electricity access is recognised. We will support governments in putting in place appropriate policies and regulations, as well as to focus on other aspects of the broader enabling environment. The proposed new programme will tackle market barriers, catalysing private sector delivery and facilitating a market-driven approach to increased access to off-grid renewable energy.
