Send a Cow – Africa Regional Director

Send a Cow works with smallholder farmers in Africa to help them fulfil their potential and work their way out of poverty for good. We do this by being people focused, practical and positive.

We ask what communities have, rather than what they need. We help them identify and value the resources they already have. Then, through training in farming, and by tackling social issues such as gender inequality, we enable them to acquire both the hope and the skills to succeed. Together, communities build a vision of a better future.

We are in partnership with NGO Recruit to assist in the search for a new Africa Regional Director.

The Africa Regional Director role comes at a period of exciting transition for Send a Cow, where we see our impact, income and influence growing. The transition includes moving our global Programme leadership and technical roles to Africa.

We are also reshaping our programmatic work to respond to opportunities such as social enterprise approaches, use of modern technologies in development, as well as building fundraising support for our work from within Africa.

We are looking for an experienced, collaborative and driven Africa Regional Director who shares our vision, values and mission, and is empathetic to our Christian identity and roots. A hands-on leader with vast experience in development, supporting country teams and delivering through local partners. An entrepreneurial leader with a strong appreciation for the practical use of business concepts and modern technology in community development.

Please note that interested candidates will need to have a prior legal right to work in Kenya.
