What you bring
Be a legally registered organization (for profit firm or non profit entity) eligible to contract in Kenya or able to operate lawfully in Kenya through an appropriate local arrangement.
Have prior experience working with youth, marginalized populations, or programmes operating in fragile, refugee-hosting, or low-resource settings. Experience in Turkana, Garissa, or comparable settings will be an advantage.
Demonstrate sound safeguarding, worker welfare, and grievance-handling practices.
Have strong financial and operational management systems sufficient to manage a results-based contract.
At least five years of relevant operational experience in one or more of the following: Operation of digital local services marketplaces; Digital marketplace management; Client acquisition and service intermediation through digital platforms; Platform-based business development; Digital intermediation of local services or work opportunities.
An operational local digital platform that enables individuals or service providers to create profiles, showcase offerings, and connect with clients or customers.
Evidence of existing or emerging user activity, marketplace demand, client traffic, service requests, transactions, or other credible indicators of platform use and commercial viability.
Proven experience in onboarding, activating, supporting, or managing participants or service providers in platform-mediated environments.
The ability to support or facilitate skills recognition, upskilling, tooling and retooling, mentorship, soft skills development, work-based learning, or related capability-building functions that contribute directly to improved marketplace outcomes.
The ability and willingness to strengthen platform practices in line with decent work principles, including transparency, inclusion, fairness, accountability, and grievance-handling.
Organisations that are primarily training institutions, or whose main comparative advantage lies in delivering training without demonstrated platform activity or credible marketplace demand, are not the target of this assignment.
