Job Opportunity At BFA Global

BFA Global is an impact innovation firm that combines research, advisory, venture building, and investment expertise to build a more inclusive, equitable, and resilient future for underserved people and the planet. We partner with leading public, private, and philanthropic organizations, both global and local, to catalyze innovation ecosystems for impact across emerging markets.

The Jobtech Alliance, launched in late 2021, is a pioneering initiative focused on inclusive jobtech in Africa. Our goal is to support digital platforms that connect individuals to work opportunities, including gig-matching platforms, job-matching services, and e-commerce marketplaces. Through two main workstreams, we aim to create an enabling environment for entrepreneurs to build platforms that provide quality livelihoods. This involves expanding the sector's knowledge base through research, community-building, and highlighting its significance. Simultaneously, we work to enhance funding by curating investors, fostering discussions on sector financing, and addressing critical policy and infrastructure needs.

The Jobtech Alliance has a grant portfolio that allows us to conduct various acceleration activities with jobtech start-ups. We partner with jobtech start-ups across 10 African markets to support strategy, product, and operational innovations that make their services more viable, scalable, inclusive, and / or deliver better-quality jobs for their users. The program deploys a range of support to start-ups, including technical assistance, project delivery support, grant capital, and connections to investors and other partners. We are now expanding to North Africa (Egypt, Tunisia, and Morocco) and looking for team members to support us in the new markets.
