We have a proven track record delivering sanitation services to the poorest, most vulnerable populations in rapidly developing cities, command of technologies and service delivery models for urban sanitation, and a strong network of collaborators around the world. We envision a future in which a city can easily access all it needs to successfully plan and implement sustainable, cost-effective and safely managed sanitation for all its residents.

We have taken on engagements with a variety of customer types, including governments, universities, private corporations, and international NGOs in this initial stage of market exploration. As we move into the next stage, the Manager – Citywise Advisory Services will develop the strategy for scaling the impact of Citywise. This leader will create a high-level strategy and 3-year strategic plan for growing our portfolio and optimizing the way we deliver our services – while maintaining our record of delivering exceptional results for our clients, in part through our “special sauce” as an advisor with an implementer’s mindset and experience.

    Develop proposals, including budgets, and iterate with clients to finalize project scope
    Collaborate with Operations Manager to execute contracts that clearly document shared expectations

    Familiarity with challenges of urban development, and interest – if not experience – in safely managed sanitation 
    Demonstrated ability to inspire, motivate and develop team members to deliver exceptional work and grow professionally – teams you lead consistently deliver on expectations, and teammates you manage take on increasing responsibility over time 
    Recognized ability to prioritize and maintain a birds-eye view of multiple projects – you know how to create and maintain the tools/systems you need to ensure your team delivers on-time 
    Commitment to excellence – you know what constitutes a phenomenal deliverable – from rigorous analysis, evidence-based conclusions and practical recommendations to consistent formatting and professional presentation – and you pride yourself on consistently delivering phenomenal work

    Ability to work toward established big-picture goals with minimal supervision – you thrive when the end goal is established, but the route is undefined. When presented with a challenge and not given clear instructions on how to solve it, you confidently deliver a proposal that is sufficiently developed such that collaborators can understand the approach and expected result in order to give meaningful feedback 
    Excitement to iterate collaboratively – you’re not discouraged when your sufficiently developed proposal is met with lots of feedback; you like to create a first draft to get peoples’ wheels turning and enjoy leading a group to a finished product by independently to incorporating feedback in between collaborative sessions
