Tentative date of commencement: 20 February 2023

Background

  • The African Development Bank (“the Bank”) is Africa’s premier multilateral development finance institution. Its mission is to contribute to the economic development and social progress of its regional members, mobilise resources for the financing of development projects, and promote economic integration on the continent.
  • The Bank has 54 African member countries and 27 non-regional member countries. It has established cooperation ties with an extensive network of international development partners and enjoys an excellent reputation on the capital markets.
  • Building upon this central role and the vision of the African Union’s 2063 agenda, together with the new realities of the global developmental agenda, the Bank has a unique opportunity to help drive the continent’s economic development and consolidate its mandate.
  • To deepen its transformative impact on the lives of millions of people, spread the word about its remarkable achievements in developing the continent, trigger adherence to its policy recommendations, stengthen its resource mobilization work, the African Development Bank seeks to establish a more sustained and proactive relationship with tier 1 international TV business news programs and publications, with a view to providing a more expansive view of the Bank's work.
  • To this end, the Communication and External Relations Department is seeking to recruit a seasoned media relations expert, with strong exposure to top tier global media to help shape and determine what the Bank’s focused messaging should and can be within the context of current global issues and the Bank's impactful work.
  • Essentially, we should be asking ourselves four questions:
    • What are we doing that other MDBs are not?
    • Why should this story, project, or issue be of journalistic and viewer interest? Does it have 'legs.' If so, what's the angle?
    • What third-party amplifiers or beneficiaries can VPs and country managers line up in the event that any media needs to check the veracity of our claims?
    • What existing media collateral can we supplement the media's reports with - background briefs, video, photographs, infographics etc.?
  • We will need to identify key bank and global events around which we can schedule pre-event feature interviews for PRST.
