Job
Description

One Acre Fund has an
incredible team of international development professionals who dedicate their
lives to serving smallholder farmers in Africa. We currently hire less than 1%
of applicants and are constantly seeking to improve our staffers’ professional,
management and leadership skills. We are focused on further establishing and
expanding our leadership and management training options for these staffers and
seek a dedicated new staffer to run this program.

The Human Capital
Development Manager (or associate) (“HCDM”) will play a key role in
the fol
lowing:

• Initial
  evaluation and audit: The HCDM will begin by working with One Acre Fund’s
  senior management to take inventory of our current professional
  development initiatives across all countries.
• Evaluate
  additional areas for growth: The HCDM will simultaneously work with One
  Acre Fund staffers across all countries and departments to identify
  additional key areas for professional growth to ensure we are taking a
  holistic approach to professional development.
• External
  review: The HCDM will perform an exhaustive review of best practices in
  both the for profit and not for profit sectors. This will include
  networking and meeting with key industry leaders and traditional research
  to identify the most impactful ways to build career, management and
  leadership skills for an international group of staffers.
• Implementation:
  The HCDM will create a comprehensive human capital development program
  accessible to staffers across the globe based on the findings above. This
  development program will include web-based learnings, courses and modules,
  as well as live courses and events.
• Management
  of programs: The HCDM will work with One Acre Fund’s senior leadership
  group to implement the program, arrange for presenters for any live or
  virtual meetings or sessions and continuously evaluate programs for impact
  and effectiveness. The HCDM will be primarily responsible for managing the
  overall program vs. teaching individual modules.
• Monitoring
  and evaluation: The HCDM will take the lead in monitoring the program
  across all countries to ensure that staffers are utilizing the resources
  and reporting back substantial benefits as a result.
