Cape Town, Western Cape, South Africa Goodwall Sa Full time

The challenge we're solving:

In 2019, a group interested in driving innovation to support youth came together in a design process with young people across Africa.


Young people in Africa say two key things:
Existing opportunities are fragmented. It's difficult to know where to find opportunities and what opportunities will lead to meaningful progression.
There are not enough opportunities. Talent is distributed, but opportunities are not. Young people - especially marginalized - need more opportunities and equal access regardless of their situational circumstances.

Our contribution to the solution: Yoma: a collaborative ecosystem approach for youth to learn, create impact and unlock livelihoods.

Yoma is a youth-centered ecosystem solution that enables youth to learn, create impact, and earn - by bringing together partners to support youth development.

As an ecosystem solution, Yoma works with partners to create complementarity between the strengths and offerings of partner to build pathways for youth to build up the skills and experience necessary to unlock sustainable livelihoods for themselves and their communities.

Underpinning the partners and the pathways is the integrating of a variety of scalable technology solutions, from social networking to learning and job platforms, all cohesively linked through a portable digital identity that verifies and connects skills and experiences gained across our expansive partner ecosystem.

The successful candidate will report into the Partnerships Development Director, Goodwall, to drive results for Yoma. Goodwall ) is a mobile-first platform connecting Gen Z year olds) to opportunity.

We leverage technology and an ecosystem of purpose-driven partners to empower youth on their journey through the world of education & work to reach their full potential and make society better.

Goodwall has a mission to level the playing field for youth globally and through its social enterprise model it serves over 2 million youth from 150+ countries.

We help those who don't go to branded educational institutions showcase their talent, connect to a supportive community, access free skill building opportunities and connect to jobs, internships and scholarships.

Goodwall is disrupting how youth access opportunity and are assessed on their potential.

Our innovative approach has had us selected most recently as a World Economic Forum Technology Pioneer Company in 2023, and recognition from various media including Fast Company, Forbes 30 under 30, CNN and others.

Goodwall has become a strategic partner to Fortune 500s as well as governmental and IOGs such as the UN to make sure no youth is left behind.

Goodwall is a diverse multicultural team between Europe, Africa and Asia with operations in the US and LATAM. Goodwall is financially and strategically backed by leading investors. Goodwall has raised over $25M in funding from leading strategic and financial backers.

Why we need you? To drive collaboration and increase the opportunities available to youth, and to increase youth's activate engagement, Yoma is establishing a team that sits across partner organisations to deliver results for the shared programme.

These teams will be called Yoma Hubs, in both South Africa and Nigeria.

The team will be managed by Yoma partner, Goodwall, and work closely with many other partners including RLabs, UNICEF, SAP and GIZ to name a few.
