International organisations dominate the job market

From the newsletter

This month’s circular economy jobs round-up features a strong presence of global bodies, showcasing roles from global players such as GIZ, UNDP, UNEP, TechnoServe, International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) and the International Telecommunication Union (ITU). Each is hiring for one role, with GIZ offering a cross-regional position.

• The jobs round-up also highlights an emerging trend in the sector, with three roles requiring transnational expertise. One position covers the entire African region, while two others involve operating across two countries. 

• Kenya stands out with three in-country roles and one cross-regional role covering both Kenya and Mozambique. Nigeria has two positions, Guinea-Bissau one and South Africa one.
