ABOUT THE ONE CAMPAIGN
ONE is a global, nonpartisan organization fighting for a more just world by demanding the investments needed to create economic opportunities and healthier lives in Africa. We do this by deploying trusted and dynamic advocacy that leverages hard-hitting data, credible grassroots activism, creative political engagement, and strategic partnerships. We use all this to influence decision-makers to take action and tackle the world’s biggest challenges. Read more at www.one.org.
ONE Data is an initiative of the ONE Campaign focused on transforming how public finance and development data is accessed and used. Our vision is a world where information asymmetries are collapsed and high-quality, evidence-based decisions lead to greater economic opportunity and healthier lives. Our mission is to organise the world’s public finance and development data and make it universally accessible and useful - collapsing the time from raw data to actionable insight. By building open, interoperable data infrastructure and intuitive analytical tools, ONE Data strengthens transparency, accountability, and more effective investment in development. In a system where data is fragmented, delayed, and difficult to interpret, ONE Data integrates disparate sources into trusted, policy-relevant insights that empower decision-makers, advocates, journalists, researchers, and partners globally.
The Operations and Project Manager will provide project, grant, and budget management for ONE’s Global Policy & Strategy Team as they continue to scale their flagship initiative, ONE Data. They will ensure operational excellence in a dynamic, entrepreneurial environment by proactively improving and maintaining team workflows. An ideal candidate will be detail and process oriented, and energized by building systems that enable high-impact teams to scale.
Regular responsibilities would include tracking team budgets, priorities, deliverable schedules across projects, and reporting out – either to internal stakeholders, other teams within ONE, or through grant and donor reports. They will liaise with ONE’s operational and legal teams to ensure budget and legal compliance for all projects, including issuing new contracts, paying invoices, and tracking time management for the team.
The Operations and Project Manager would also be a natural diplomat – able to independently identify potential challenges, clear roadblocks, and escalate where necessary. Their understanding of team workflows, capacity, budget, and priorities will directly inform team strategy and resource allocation – and how the Managing Director prioritizes their own workflows to best support the team’s growth and ambition. This role would also support the Managing Director with scheduling, expense reconciliation, and travel as necessary. The ideal candidate will be a standout colleague and self-starter with excellent project management and communications skills, who is able to handle a varied role, and has familiarity and interest in development policy.
LANGUAGE SKILLS: Fluency in English required. Proficiency in additional languages relevant to ONE’s work (such as French or German) is a plus.
COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS: $70,000 - $85,000 annual salary. This salary range is based on compensation survey data for similar organizations and is used to set pay internally at ONE. Where a new hire’s salary falls within this range is based on a variety of factors, including the budget available for this position.
