CAMECO is a non-profit consultancy specialising in media and communication in the Global South and countries in transition. We work with local partner organisations as well as donor organisations – including numerous international faith-based aid organisations – to strengthen community-oriented, development-focused and Church-related media and communication.
Our work combines professional media and communication expertise with commitment to participation, dialogue and sustainable development. We advise organisations on strategies and projects, help develop viable approaches to media and communication, assess project proposals and accompany partners from an initial idea through implementation and learning. Our international team brings together regional, thematic and methodological expertise, and we form an active part of the German and international media development community. We value professional standards as much as initiative and the willingness to develop new ideas.
As Desk Officer, you will combine regional expertise with professional knowledge of media, communication and development cooperation. Your main responsibilities will include:
- reviewing and assessing project proposals from partner organisations in Latin America and the Caribbean;
- accompanying partners in the planning, implementation and further development of media and communication initiatives;
- developing and managing media development projects funded by public donors and private foundations;
- facilitating processes, workshops and exchanges with partner and donor organisations; and
- actively contributing to CAMECO's evolving areas of work, including Digital Literacy, Digital Capacity Development and Design Thinking.
The position offers considerable scope to shape your own area of responsibility. We are particularly interested in colleagues who not only manage ongoing work reliably, but also recognise opportunities, bring forward ideas and enjoy developing them together with others.
We offer an initial one-year contract, starting in January 2027, with the possibility of extension, a competitive salary, and social benefits package including an additional pension fund. For more details, see Job Vacancy - Desk Officer for Latin America and the Caribbean / CAMECO.
