II. Entrepreneur Program Project Manager
At
KDM we are currently setting up a new business unit. Within this
'design' business unit we are involved in a big project called Ffrash
(partnering yayasan). In Indonesia we have an abundance of garbage but
there is also an abundance of skilled workers who are very good in
handcrafting and furniture making. Ffrash combines these two aspects.
The idea of Ffrash is to make design furniture from trash. Together with
well-known Dutch designers who will join this project, Ffrash will
design and produce furniture made from trash. In this process, a group
of KDM youngsters is involved. These youngsters will learn everything
about design, and they will be learning on-the-job how to become
entrepreneurs themselves. The products will ultimately be sold in
Indonesia and in the Netherlands. The brand name of these products will
be “Ffrash” (a hybrid of Trash and Fresh).
Responsibilities:
Your
main responsibility is to be the contact person between KDM and our
partner ‘Ffrash’. As this is a new and big project, communication is a
key factor to make it a success. Furthermore you will be managing the
youngsters and the activity on the work-floor. You will be responsible
for the safety at the workshop, you will be monitoring and managing the
raw material packaging stock, you will be planning and assigning the
work on the work floor, and you will be responsible for the cleanliness
of the workshop.
You
have great organizational skills and a hand on mentality (getting
things done) and you don’t run a way for unforeseen challenges. Having a
helicopter view of the project is very important because a lot of small
yet important things need to be managed. Of course you are keen on
working with children, and especially teenagers.
Other requirements:
- Very good English speaking/writing skills
- Excellent computer skills
What’s in it for you?
If
you join the KDM organization you will get the chance to do great
things. Not only can you help less fortunate teenagers to create a
better future for themselves, you can also expose yourself as a great
manager. You will be working in an international team (Ffrash is managed
by a Dutch team, living in Jakarta as well as in The Netherlands) where
you get the opportunity to set up a whole new business.
For
those who available to work immediately, please send your application
letter indicating the applied position, CV, and recent photograph in
.PDF format (10 pages max, not more than 2MB file size), no later than
September 30th, 2013 to: recruitment.kdm@gmail.com.
