  Feb 2011 - Jan 2012

  Assistant Project Manager

  I worked in Zambia for a microcredit project founded by E.U. as project manager assistant. The institution has got two different branches operating in two different districts. Each branch is led by a Branch Manager and my main task was to assist the Branch Manager in improving the performance of the branch. In particular I had to ensure that loan officers implemented correctly all institution's credit procedures in terms of client's selection and training, considering that the main targets of the institution are vulnerable groups. I was also in charge of a feasibility study for a new project promoted by CeLIM NGO. The focus would be to provide farmers with technical skills and financial availability in order to improve the production and differentiation of fresh vegetables in the district. Another important focus of the project would be to improve the marketing sector by networking farmers with the main buyers of the area. Show less
