About the Need:

Over the past two years, ECI has grown from a small, volunteer-led organization with a few employees and a couple of programs, to a medium-sized organization with a team of over 50 Afghan employees running 6 programs across 6 provinces of Afghanistan. ECI’s growth strategy has included investing in a strong Afghan leadership team who can navigate the organization through the uncertain environment while also growing the organization. As part of this growth strategy, ECI is fleshing out its senior management cadre.
