Component Managers, Indonesia
We are currently seeking component managers for multiple positions on an upcoming initiative in Indonesia funded by AusAid entitled PRISMA. The objective of the program is to contribute to reduced poverty and increased competitiveness of poor male and female farmers in four Districts in each of the following provinces: East Java, NTT, NTB, Papua,
West Papua. The program aims to achieve this through improved farmer practices,
increased access to input and output markets, and improved business enabling environment at the regional level. While this program will require a systems approach (i.e., taking into account multiple commodities and value chains), entry points for engagement with local markets are likely to be found in commodities such as seaweed, maize, peanuts, cattle and livestock, and cocoa.
Possible start date is July 2013, and the position is subject to ACDI/VOCA being awarded the program. The program design summary can be found at: //ausaid.gov.au/business/Documents/aipd-rural-summary-design-document.pdf
