WAJAMAMA is looking for an experienced finance officer to ensure financial health of our organization. The officer will be expected to undertake all aspects of financial management including designing and overseeing financial processes, accounting, and bookkeeping, implementing our internal controls and best practices, ensuring financial and donor reporting compliance, regulatory and financial reporting, budget and forecasts preparation, further development of our internal control policies and procedures, and assisting in the development of the organization’s growth strategy. Additionally, the officer will be expected to provide ownership and execution on all administrative issues. Experience with developing budget proposals, grant writing, and working with grassroots organizations is a plus.

Who We Are
Founded in 2019, WAJAMAMA is a women-led and locally founded social enterprise-NGO hybrid built on the belief that initiatives aimed at making the greatest social change must prioritize the beginning of life. Because each life starts inside of a woman, our model primarily focuses on women’s and girls’ health. For those who choose to become mothers, this will increase their chances of having healthy pregnancies, as well as empowering labor and birth experiences. Subsequently, this will make healthy and beautiful beginnings a right accessible to their babies. It is well known that the holistic wellbeing of infants during the first 1000 days after conception has the power to impact their health, cognitive development, and livelihood for the rest of their lives. At WAJAMAMA, our work is centered around the understanding that a future with “equal opportunities for all” is dependent on the transformation of the narratives surrounding reproductive health, pregnancy, and childbirth outcomes that continue to put birthing people in Zanzibar and their babies at a disadvantage.
