Digital and Social Media Managers at British Council Nigeria

Posted on Fri 30th Sep, 2016 - hotnigerianjobs.com --- (0 comments)


The British Council is the world's leading cultural relations organization and creates opportunities for people in the UK and worldwide to understand each other, to work together and learn from one another. We see this as crucial to building secure, more prosperous and sustainable futures for us all. We build trust and understanding between different countries and cultures and develop strong international links that are of benefit to people in Britain and the rest of the world.

We are recruiting to fill the below position below:

Job Title: Digital and Social Media Manager

Location:
Lagos
Region: Sub Saharan Africa
Department: Digital
Job Category: Digital
Pay Band: Pay Band 6

Purpose of Job
  • The Digital and Social Media Manager will be responsible for developing and delivering high quality content across social media channels for the relevant Strategic Business Unit - Exams & Programmes.
  • The content will be delivered through close liaison with teams in question.
  • The post holders will be proactive and creative, working collaboratively with colleagues to define and implement digital strategies, plans and campaigns for the Business Units.
British Council Operating Context
Current: 
  • Nigeria is one of the largest economies in Africa. It is also the most populous country with over 180 million citizens. The UK is its largest trading partner. Nigeria holds significant political power in the region and internationally and its society retains a positive attitude to the UK.
  • Therefore, there continue to be major opportunities for the UK and BC to build on our strong existing relationships with the Nigerian government, institutions and customers/audiences. However, there are complex and substantial risks to this work i.e. security and compliance. 
  • Nigeria is the British Council’s largest operation in sub-Saharan Africa with offices in 4 cities – Port Harcourt in the south, Kano in the north, Abuja the Federal capital and Lagos the commercial centre. We also have a number of project offices across the country.
  • Our 200 staff work across a range of states delivering large scale contracts, partnership programmes, examinations, projects as well as services in Arts, Education & Society and English & Exams. We are already achieving substantial impact and income (current annual income is £27.2 million) and have plans to grow and develop our impact further.
  • Partners and clients include government, public and private institutions, foundations, private sector organisations and civil society. We work closely with the wider UK mission including DFID and UKTI. 
  • Nigeria has the largest exams operations in SSA.  There are currently over 40 members in the exams team.  Nigeria examinations work encompasses Schools exams via our partnership with Cambridge International Education (CIE), IELTS (International English Language Testing System), and a wide range of academic and professional qualifications.  Last year, we delivered 90,000 exams on a turnover of £8.2m. 
  • This financial year, there are growth targets to achieve income of £9.2m.  Customer service, operational quality and compliance are critical to the business.  Developing flexible and appropriate delivery models is vital in responding to the challenges working across the country.
Future:  
  • 42% of Nigeria’s population is under 14. The government has recognised that its Vision 2020 must address the aspirations of this young population as part of its drive to achieve peace and prosperity. This has led to unprecedented interest and investment in Education, the Arts and good governance.
  • This alignment with the UK’s priorities creates a growth environment for the British Council. To be successful in this, we are building understanding with our UK stakeholders of Nigeria as an emerging economy with substantial commercial and development opportunities as well as the challenges they may be more familiar with. In this we seek to integrate our approach with that of the wider UK mission.
  • We are expanding and scaling up our existing programmes, contracts and services in the Arts, Education & Society, English & Examinations and developing offers to fill important gaps such as in Skills.
  • We are also working to ensure that we have a good balance of partnership, customer services and client funded work across all these sectors. To do all this we need to create the right enabling environment. In addition to developing the professional and technical expertise of our staff, we need to support them to build their relationships within Nigeria, the region and the wider global network.
  • This will ensure we develop as well as adopt and use best practice. We also need rigorous and compliant frameworks to support our work in areas such as finance, tax & status, security, procurement, compliance and quality management.
  • We have new premises in Kano and have a major premises project under development in Abuja. However, there is still more work to be done, especially in Lagos and Port Harcourt to ensure our premises and technology support our brand reputation for integrity, innovation and professionalism.
