Cape Town, South Africa Girl Effect Full time

**Who we are**

Girl Effect is an international non-profit that builds media that girls want, trust and need.** **From chatbots to chat shows, TV dramas to tech, our content helps adolescent girls in Africa and Asia make choices and changes in their lives. We create safe spaces for girls, sharing facts and answering questions about health, nutrition, education, and relationships, empowering girls with the skills to negotiate and redefine what they are told is possible "for a girl".

Our reach is 20 million and counting, and we use technology to reach girls at scale so every girl can choose to be in control of her body, health, learning and livelihood.

Because when a girl unlocks her power to make different choices that change her life, it inspires others to do so too. She starts a ripple effect that impacts her family, community, and country.

That's the Girl Effect.

**Context of the role**

For over a decade, Girl Effect has been building technology that aims to create a safer and more accessible world for women and girls, using the insights and experiences girls share with us.

From websites and chatbots, to IVR services, innovation for us is about using the right tech in the best way to reach girls and meet their challenges. As technology evolves and girls' habits change, we adapt and improve the platforms, processes, and infrastructure that underpin everything we do.

**Who we are looking for**

Girl Effect's Global Technology Team oversees the management, maintenance and delivery of our technology infrastructure backlog using agile practices, and the delivery of key digital innovations within the organisation, such as our AI-driven chatbots.

- TORs, PRFs, RFPs
- Support the Digital Delivery Manager and Director of Technology to define roadmaps and manage the org-wide technology backlog, including logging requests from teams
- Work with the wider organisation to modify our ways of working for efficient delivery processes and continuous improvement

**Essential skills and expertise**
- A track record of successfully delivery of complex technology projects in high tech environments, ideally within a global organisation (examples could include website, chatbot, infrastructure or software development)
- Strong project management and coaching skills with experience in Agile and Lean practices / SCRUM Master roles
- Ability to evaluate complex risks accurately and objectively
- Strong analytical, organisational and presentation skills
- Substantive working knowledge of Content Management Systems (e.g. Wagtail or other open-source technologies)
- Experience using Jira (or similar SDLC workflow management tools) to manage project delivery
- Strong delivery reporting skills and experience with capacity management
- Ability to build relationships with a range of technical and non-technical stakeholders
- Commercially aware - has the ability to find opportunities to add value for money
- Effective communicator who can synthesise complex theories, policies and perspectives
- Enjoys operating in a varied, fast-moving, dynamic environment

**Desirable**
- Familiarity with user-centred design approaches
- Exposure to and understanding of GDPR and implications for organisations
- Exposure to technology development safeguarding considerations
- Experience working in a global setting, across multiple time zones and different cultures
- Interest in International Development and Girls' Empowerment

**What else you should know**

As we continue to scale and grow - we are hugely ambitious for our future and we are looking for people who are driven to change the world for girls.

Our teams are a diverse mix across sectors (non-profit and commercial) and specialisms (from Brand and Creative through to Gender and Insight). You'll learn and grow in an environment that will challenge you to think and work with a fresh perspective. In turn, you can expect to work somewhere where you will be stretched and developed in your role, a place where you can build your career and work with talented, engaged people committed to our cause.
