In this role you will liaise with Generation Kenya and Global Generation leadership to formulate, drive, and execute the growth strategy. You will overcome operational challenges in a proactive way by overseeing fundraising activities, ensuring a sustainable funding pipeline to support the strategic ambitions of Generation Kenya. You will build and cultivate relationships with program partners throughout Kenya, including employers, funders, and general supporters (e.g., public officials, influential civic leaders). You will also ensure self-sustainability of the program through employer engagement, as well as the collection of student commitment fees.
As the CEO of Generation Kenya you will oversee the high-quality implementation of Generation programs across geographies and sectors, ensuring results both for disconnected youth beneficiaries and employer partners.

With adherence to Generation methodology, practices and standards, you will ensure that programs are running smoothly and will provide problem solving and tactical support as needed. You will directly manage the program manager and senior management team for a high-quality and successful implementation of their respective Generation programs. You will ensure appropriate organisation and staffing and will oversee the implementation of human resources policies and procedures (including set up of payroll, benefits plans, etc.). Additionally, you will oversee all financial management processes including budgeting, procurement, reporting and auditing processes.
In order to devise the growth strategy, you will liaise with the McKinsey Kenya Generation lead and conduct regular meetings with the McKinsey Kenya Leadership team and the global Generation team. You will be a credible representative of our efforts with potential partners (employers and training providers) as well as public and private funders. You will also manage relationships with partners and employers and will grow new relationships.
