The Kaizen Company is seeking applications for an entry-level Website Data Entry Consultant for the USAID-funded Partnerships Incubator, a five-year project that started in October 2019.
The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) aims to diversify its partner base by removing barriers to engagement and creating avenues for new and underutilized partners to work with the Agency. The Partnerships Incubator was set up as a global service hub to address this need by amplifying USAID’s external communications efforts to strengthen and diversify the Agency’s partner base, expanding Agency capacity for partnerships, and supporting partner organizations working with USAID. The Partnerships Incubator works with USAID headquarters and Missions to identify and engage new and local partners, provide training and capacity-building assistance, and develop tools, resources, and models to advance USAID’s partnership goals. The project recently launched WorkwithUSAID.gov, a free, USAID-funded resource hub designed to connect partners to peers and experts, improve their organizational readiness, and prepare them to receive USAID funding.
The Website Data Entry Consultant will be a key contributor to USAID’s Partnerships Incubator operations with a particular focus on WorkwithUSAID.gov and partner-related services on the website. The Partnerships Incubator website team is responsible for activities that transform user/partner needs and USAID requirements into successful website products. The web team develops and executes strategies that amplify USAID’s external communications efforts to engage partners, raise awareness of tools and resources on the website, and drive traffic to WorkwithUSAID.gov.
The incumbent will carry out responsibilities that advance USAID’s efforts to inform, engage, and support new partners and will serve as a rapid response contributor to other Incubator activities.
