Represent Quest in networks, coalitions, and forums related to youth skilling and employability.

Collaborate with regional teams, MEL, training, communications, and operations to ensure program alignment and synergy.
Use internal systems for contracting, subgrant management, budgeting, and progress tracking.

Directly manage a team of Program Associates and/or regional staff working on VTI initiatives.
Provide regular coaching, mentoring, and performance feedback to team members.
Ensure timely goal setting, reviews, and documentation for team performance.
Foster a culture of collaboration, ownership, and continuous learning within the team.
Ensure staff development through capacity building, exposure, and learning opportunities.
Support hiring, onboarding, and team planning processes as required.

Promote a strong MEL culture by integrating program outcomes with evaluation frameworks.
Use data dashboards and feedback mechanisms to adapt and improve program delivery.
Lead quarterly reviews and learning loops to inform strategy and planning.

Requirements Required Attributes :

Ability to independently lead visioning, planning, and delivery.
Experience with partner-led models, community-based skilling, and youth-centered design.
Proven track record of leading and motivating small to mid-sized teams.
Adept at cross-functional coordination and partner engagement.
Strong written and verbal communication skills; ability to influence, present, and advocate.
Capable of using data for planning, monitoring, and improvement.
Youth-focused, inclusive, adaptive, and aligned with equity and empowerment.

At least 5 years of relevant experience in skilling, livelihoods, education, or youth development.
Demonstrated ability to manage programs, partnerships, and internal teams.
