Oxfam GB Jobs in Kenya

Oxfam works to attain a just world without poverty. This is a world in which people can influence the decisions that affect their lives; everyone can enjoy their rights and assume their responsibilities as active citizens; and all human beings are valued and treated equally.
At the Pan Africa level, Oxfam therefore promotes active citizenship, effective national governance and the realisation and enjoyment of fundamental freedoms and human rights contained in key AU policy standards and legal instruments.
There is a wealth of African development and human rights instruments available to secure sustainable, equitable growth and justice for all on the continent.
The gap is in how to resource these plans; awareness and accountability around them; and the lack of inclusion of citizens in their domestication and implementation processes.
We work with social movements, civil society, the African Union and Governments to support implementation of key international and continental development pledges and human rights instruments.
We expect that more people living in poverty – especially women and youth – will be lifted out of poverty and enjoy their human rights as a result of our actions.
Within this vision we seek to develop a multi-country programme on inclusive development financing in the African region: “Making Sense of an Unequal World: Africa-approach to tackling inequality & opportunity capture”.
Position: Consultancy - Oxfam Shared Services Centre Team Building Workshop
The business support functions in Finance, Human Resources, Logistics, Administration and IT, have been brought together into one independent, customer centric functional Centre known as the Shared Services Centre (SSC).
Consequently, a Shared Services Centre was created to take over all the transactional work currently being carried out in each separate business unit.
In the process, there has been significant changes and inevitably significant turnover.
It is therefore of essence to create a solid and successful culture of teamwork in the Unit to establish trust, effective communication and maximization of teammate strengths.
It is in this regard that the Oxfam SSC is keen to hold a team building training workshop to build on these objectives.
Oxfam Nairobi Shared Services Center (a business support function of Finance, Human Resources, Logistics, Administration and IT) is looking for a facilitator form/organization (maximum of 2 persons) that can facilitate a team building training with key deliverables as detailed in the attached Terms of Reference.
