About VSO
VSO is the world’s leading independent international development organisation that works through volunteers to fight poverty in developing countries. Our high-impact approach brings people together to share skills, build capabilities, promote international understanding and action to change lives and make the world a fairer place.

Role overview
Tanzania has recorded good progress in achieving universal education for all children. Yet despite increasing enrolment rates, the quality of education remains weak, retention is poor, and less than half of students pass the Primary School Leaving Exam. In the project area, Muleba district, the pass rate is even lower: only 26%! The average teacher to student ratio is around 1:55 and motivation among teachers is low. Findings from the Uwezo survey 2011 have shown that seven out of ten pupils in standard III (aged 9-10) are unable to read basic stories and solve simple arithmetic problems. In Tanzania, this level is called ‘standard 2 level’, the level that all pupils in group 3 should be able to master. Even many children, especially in rural areas, leave primary school without being able to read and count at this basic level.
Following the above, VSO Tanzania established a partnership with education institutions found in the Kagera region, to implement the project namely Raise Income for School Education – RISE. As part of the project implementation plan the project will enrol a Project Manager and M&E Advisor. She/he will manage the project implementing partners and ensure the project meets its key indicators and enhance the Institutional capacity.This project is supported by funding from The Netherlands.

Skills, qualifications and experience required
For this role we are looking for a Dutch volunteer with a master degree in Accountancy/Finance/Business administration. You’ll have at least 4 years experience in project management and monitoring and evaluation. You have good experience in establishing and supporting organizational development. You’re able to adapt to different work environments. You’re used to working on your own, working creatively and taking the lead in new initiatives.
