Context

Seed Change
Tanzania was established
in 2013 to
help smallholder farmers
in Kigoma achieve
better livelihood returns
from their agricultural pursuits.
Initial efforts are
focused on increasing
yield and increasing
farmer knowledge of
agricultural techniques and
business/financial
literacy.
However Seed
Change is looking
to expand fast
as there are
upwards of 80,000
farmers we aim
to reach. To
facilitate this expansion
we have created
two departments.
1) Seed Nursery
2) Farmer Extension
3) Policy, Strategy,
and Fundraising
4) Sales, Promotion,
and Administration
The XX
will be the
head of the
Sales and Promotion
Department. The position
has one direct
report (Office Assistant)
and will work
with the assistance
of the Community
Development Manager. The
main goal of
the XX will
be to sell
48,000 high yielding
oil palm seedlings,
which are growing
in our nursery
in Kigoma.
