We were established in 1960 by Dr. Marcus Wallenberg Jr as the Swedish Industry’s Council for Foreign Affairs. Initially the Council functioned as a forum for deliberations on Sweden’s relationship with the European Economic Community (the predecessor of the EU). In the late 1970s, the name was changed to the International Council of Swedish Industry (Näringslivets Internationella RÃ¥d, NIR) and focus shifted to emerging markets. In 2006 NIR again underwent an additional narrowing of focus and since then we have focussed solely on targeting complex markets with untapped potential for Swedish business.
At International Council of Swedish Industry (NIR) we are looking for two Regional Programme Coordinators, one based in Nairobi and one in Johannesburg, to join the team that implements the Swedish Workplace Programme (SWP). The Regional Programme Coordinators will play a critical role in driving the operations of the SWP in Kenya and South Africa and the adoption of practices that will enhance overall wellbeing at workplaces.
You will be responsible for the day to day planning, implementing, monitoring and reporting of the programme activities. This will include reflective learning practice, conducting first level training/workshops, organising events and monitoring of activities.
As the ideal candidate you are energized by the opportunity to build and develop new ideas on how to engage the private sector in contributing to decent work and sustainable business.
As our new colleague, we believe that you are enthusiastic about working in team setting, managing multiple tasks with a high level of diligence and comfortable working towards deadlines and results. You will be working in an international setting with the SWP secretariat based in Stockholm and other colleagues in Asia and Latin America. You will be expected to have excellent interpersonal skills, be practical and proactive.
