Country: Ecuador, United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland
Closing date: 28 Sep 2014
Our partner works with the poorest families in the impoverished districts of Quito in order to bring about the best possible environment conducive to the early stages of a child’s development. This is not just about learning, but also focuses on the importance of nutrition and enjoying their childhood as well to create balanced, well rounded individuals who are able to fulfil their potential in life. The organisation only works with the poorest families in Quito to ensure that those they are helping are truly in need of the services available; that of day care which allows the parents to go out and earn a living whilst the children receive a healthy diet, secure environment and a good standard of education.
In a city where nearly 80% of the population are living in unsatisfactory conditions, often devoid of sanitation and clean water, the work our partner does gives these families a chance to lift themselves out of poverty.
As you would be the first AfID volunteer with this organisation, your role would be akin to undertaking an internal audit; assessing the financial controls and processes whilst making alterations as you see fit. It will be up to you to oversee the general day-to-day accounting processes and the end of month reports. You would be working as an auditor to assess the budgets and the current accounting procedures, but there will also be a chance for you to help with a great deal of staff training.
They would be keen to see you assist them with their funding from their Netherlands HQ and this could involve delivering online training workshops to their founder via Skype. They are currently operating on MS Excel, but feel that they are not getting the most out of it. Whilst remaining open to options, you will have to analyse whether their needs would be better suited to a different accounting system or should Excel suffice; you will be required to train their finance team how to make the most of it.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone with the right attitude to really challenge themselves whilst helping others – this will be a test of your accounting skills and promises to be a rewarding experience for all involved.
