SECTION I: JOB PURPOSE
The Project Officer supports the day to day implementation of project activities in schools, working closely with teachers, students, field directorates, and supervisors. The role requires someone who can manage a work plan while building good working relationships with school staff, and who understands that successful implementation depends on people as much as on timelines.
