The Africa Liberal Network (ALN) is a network of liberal democratic political parties across the continent. The project was conceived in 2003 with a vision of creating a prosperous, integrated Africa with flourishing democracies that are at peace with one another, in which every person has the right and opportunity to fulfill their potential and be what they want to be.
The ALN’s mission is to empower liberal parties to grow their support, increase their influence on politics, and implement liberal policies when in government. The network and its activities are funded through a combination of self-financing and support from strategic partners, most notably the Friedrich Naumann Foundation for Freedom (FNF) and the Westminster Foundation for Democracy (WFD).
This vacancy is for the Coordinator of the ALN Secretariat, responsible for managing the network on a day-to-day basis and overseeing its projects. The office is located in South Africa and is funded primarily by the FNF.
The position is administratively and strategically line-managed by the management of FNF in sub-Saharan Africa. The Secretariat receives political guidance from the network’s elected Executive Committee. The ALN enjoys a close cooperation with Liberal International (LI), the global political family to which liberal parties and organisations belong.
The core purpose of the role:
- Oversee the delivery of ALN projects and manage the network on a daily basis;
- Promote the efforts of the network through a variety of media; and
- Work with ALN members and partners to expand the impact and influence of the network.
