About the OPTions Initiative Learning Platform
Options Consultancy (Options) is preparing to implement a second phase of the OPTions Initiative Learning Platform (OLP). The Learning Platform is expected to support organisations (innovators) which have received funding to advance their work. The objective of the innovators is to employ innovative and transformative approaches that put women and girls in control of their reproductive health choices.
The Platform will be expected to accelerate and track the impact of innovators by providing non-financial support. To do so, the Platform will support innovators in groups and individually to work towards and achieve proof of concept and develop a plan for sustainable impact at scale. The Platform will leverage learnings from previous phases of the initiative, innovators’ lessons learned, and expertise in the area to provide best practices and build a collaborative innovator community and extended professional network.
The Venture Advisory Consultant will be responsible for supporting innovators to navigate and plan through the scaling journey, ideally in the social impact and/or health sector. The consultant will, among other tasks, identify innovators’ priority support areas through a needs assessment; support in designing a technical support delivery plan and in delivering it; support the OLP team to identify additional specific Venture Advisory technical expertise that might be required.
This is an exciting and impactful consultancy role, forging close working relationships with the OLP Initiative’s innovators. The purpose of the assignment is to provide both group-based and one-to-one capacity-building and support sessions on the areas listed below, with OPTions’ innovators to aid them to be strategic in their scaling-up journey. The support provided will be tailored to innovators’ needs. The candidate will have to demonstrate:
