Job Description

About the Project

SNV Tanzania aims to accelerate the uptake of higher-tier clean cooking (HTC) solutions through targeted private sector engagement and innovative financing mechanisms. The intervention is designed to strengthen clean energy markets by focusing specifically on market-based approaches that enable private sector actors to scale. Recognising the critical role of the private sector in driving sustained adoption, the intervention prioritises strengthening local HTC companies as the primary delivery channel for clean cooking solutions.

SNV will utilize Results-Based Financing (RBF) to competitively select and contract eligible HTC companies, which will implement activities to expand and professionalize their operations. Financial incentives are disbursed to these companies only after predefined results have been achieved and independently verified. The RBF mechanism will provide performance-based financial incentives linked to the verified achievement of predefined milestones, enabling HTC companies to invest in growth while reducing financial risk. This approach ensures that funding is directly tied to tangible results, while allowing companies flexibility in how they deploy resources to achieve those results—an approach that has proven effective in similar RBF interventions. Overall, the financial incentives provided to companies are intended to stimulate growth in the HTC market, ultimately benefiting the population of Tanzania by making clean cooking solutions more accessible and affordable.

Overview of the Position

The Project Coordinator will be responsible for the overall management and implementation of the clean cooking RBF programme, ensuring its effective operationalisation, delivery and achievement of intended results. This will include developing the RBF implementation framework, manuals and procedures; coordinating the competitive selection and contracting of eligible HTC companies; and managing the day-to-day operations of the programme, including performance monitoring, results verification and incentive disbursements. The Project Coordinator will also oversee programme financial and operational performance, manage stakeholder relationships and represent SNV in relevant sector forums and coordination platforms.

Key Responsibilities

The Project Coordinator shall:

  1. Lead the implementation of the clean cooking RBF programme, ensuring delivery in line with the programme design, objectives, results framework and approved workplan.
  2. Lead the operationalisation and rollout of the RBF mechanism, including the development of implementation manuals, selection criteria, competitive award processes and programme launch.
  3. Oversee the management and administration of RBF grants and financing instruments, ensuring effective due diligence, contracting, financial controls and compliance with established procedures.
  4. Provide technical and managerial oversight of participating HTC companies, monitoring implementation progress and supporting them to achieve agreed milestones and targets.
  5. Oversee results verification and performance-based disbursements, ensuring that financial incentives are released in accordance with verified results and contractual agreements.
  6. Manage programme financial performance, including budget oversight, expenditure monitoring, forecasting and timely financial reporting.
  7. Establish and implement effective monitoring systems to track programme performance, identify implementation risks and ensure timely corrective action.
  8. Provide leadership and supervision to programme staff, including ongoing performance management, coaching and annual appraisals.
  9. Coordinate engagement with participating HTC companies, government institutions, financial institutions, verification agencies and other key stakeholders.
  10. Represent SNV in relevant sector meetings, forums and other external engagements, promoting the programme and strengthening strategic partnerships.

Qualifications

  • Master's degree in a relevant field, MBA, or other advanced degree
  • A relevant post-graduate qualification in an energy-related field will be an advantage.
  • Minimum 7 years of relevant senior experience with complex development programmes
  • Demonstrated experience in managing funds, preferably in promotion of improved cooking technologies
  • Experience in, and understanding of, the improved cooking market in Tanzania
  • A track record of structuring and managing RBF facilities aimed at market stimulation
  • Demonstrated understanding of success factors of for-profit businesses
