• Produce creative programmes based on robust research in multi-media formats, which inform and engage audiences on key governance and development issues;
• Strengthen the media sector through building professional capacity and infrastructure.

The BBC Media Action North Africa office has developed its work across the Maghreb from a base in Tunis from where a portfolio of media projects for Tunisia, Libya, Algeria and the region are run.

Overall Purpose of Job

The Assistant Projects Manager will be tasked directly by the Project Manager, although s/he will also be expected to be proactive. Tight deadlines are common.

• Provide support to country-based project teams by managing aspects of a portfolio of projects, as directed by Projects Manager.
• Ensure that project outputs are achieved by effective management of resources and processes, monitoring schedules, and deadlines for project deliverables.
• Support smooth running of project activities and coordinate with planning, schedules and documentation such as risk assessments as required.
• Assist in the creation of analytical donor reports to meet deadlines.
• Work closely with trainers, trainees and BBC Media Action staff to organise and coordinate project activities (including capacity-building and production activities) in line with agreed objectives.
• Support in selecting trainees for projects where relevant and monitor their progress and support their learning.
• Help coordinate monitoring and evaluation activities with the Research team, for example trainer and trainee evaluation of training and production.
• Follow BBC safety requirements and instructions and support project /country office teams to comply with BBC Media Action procedures, such as health and safety guidelines, financial management procedures and procurement guidelines as required.
• Contribute to the editorial quality and compliance of all programmes and materials produced, with support from in-country and London teams.
• Support the assessment of future project needs and engage in discussions around work beyond current project.
• Ad hoc English and Arabic and/or French translation tasks as required.
• Be available to work in office or on location, and may be required sometimes to work long hours, on weekends or on public holidays.
