Overview
DAI is an international development company. For more than 45 years, we have worked on the frontlines of international development, tackling fundamental social and economic development problems caused by inefficient markets, ineffective governance, and instability. Currently, DAI is delivering results that matter in some 80 countries.
Our development solutions turn ideas into impact by bringing together fresh combinations of expertise and innovation across multiple disciplines. Our clients include international development agencies, international lending institutions, private corporations and philanthropies, and national governments.
Chief of Party – Tanzania Feed the Future Land Tenure Activity (LTA)
About the job
DAI works on the frontlines of global development in more than 150 countries by transforming ideas into action—action into impact. We recently celebrated our 50th anniversary of tackling fundamental social and economic development problems caused by inefficient markets, ineffective governance, and instability.
DAI is a WASH sector leader with a dedicated team in DAI headquarters and flagship USAID programs in Haiti, Indonesia, Kenya, Lebanon, the Philippines, and the Africa Regional WALIS Program. We have additional, and significant, WASH activities under our governance programs in Guatemala, Iraq, and Mozambique, among others. Our experience is comprehensive – we take a systemic approach to resolving the upstream protection and management needs of water resources while ensuring the efficient and equitable delivery of water and sanitation services to consumers. We recognize that societies get the greatest health and economic benefits from water and sanitation when we leverage benefits within, and across, sectors (and across our projects) and when local stakeholders are at the center of the decision-making process and part of a collaborative implementation approach.
DAI seeks Chief of Party candidates for an anticipated USAID-funded Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene Market Systems activity in Tanzania. The program will strengthen the resilience and performance of the WASH sector through an integrated and systemic approach to rural and urban water service provision; sector financing; sanitation and hygiene markets; and water resource management. The COP will provide the strategic leadership and management necessary to deliver tangible and sustainable results in partnership with government, private sector, and other development partners.
