Life Choices – Managing Director (Not for Profit)

Life Choices is a Cape Town-based NPO holistically working with young people. We are a youthful team, passionate about our work and people in general. We like to challenge ourselves and keep innovating. This is a great opportunity for a talented and driven individual to become part of a ‘Bold Movement Investing in Youth to Tackle Inequality.’

Our model is guided by a simple principal: humans have unlimited potential, and they have the power within them to find solutions for the deep-seated problems within society and that is why we’ve chosen to implement these four key programmes:

• Health4Life
• Family Affairs
• Leader’s Quest
• Life Choices Coding Academy

Of particular importance is the MDs role in ensuring that the organisation becomes and remains financially solvent in its programmatic and fundraising activities, as determined by revenue and expense, budget planning and management. It will be the MDs role to guide strategy into implementation by supporting the development of programs that allow goals to be achieved and attract interest from funders. It is also the responsibility of the MDs to encourage and guide the team to achieve those goals.
