URGENTLY NEEDED - KDM Entrepreneurial Program Project Manager

Kampus Diakonia Modern (KDM) is a social institution assisting development
of street children located in Pondok Gede, Bekasi, West Java, is looking
for dynamic and creative individual to take up position below:

*What is Entrepreneur Program?*
Through KDM’s extensive network, our children are exposed to many career
opportunities that allow them to develop into independent, young adults.
They have the choice to continue furthering their education and improving
their skills in an internship program or college through one of our various
sponsors.

*Entrepreneur Program Project Manager*
At KDM we are currently setting up a new business unit. Within this
'design' business unit we are involved in a big project called Ffrash
(partnering yayasan). In Indonesia we have an abundance of garbage but
there is also an abundance of skilled workers who are very good in
handcrafting and furniture making. Ffrash combines these two aspects. The
idea of Ffrash is to make design furniture from trash.  Together with
well-known Dutch designers who will join this project, Ffrash will design
and produce furniture made from trash. In this process, a group of KDM
youngsters is involved. These youngsters will learn everything about
design, and they will be learning on-the-job how to become entrepreneurs
themselves. The products will ultimately be sold in Indonesia and in the
Netherlands. The brand name of these products will be “Ffrash” (a hybrid of
Trash and Fresh).

*Responsibilities:*
Your main responsibility is to be the contact person between KDM and our
partner ‘Ffrash’. As this is a new and big project, communication is a key
factor to make it a success. Furthermore you will be managing the
youngsters and the activity on the work-floor. You will be responsible for
the safety at the workshop, you will be monitoring and managing the raw
material & packaging stock, you will be planning and assigning the work on
the work floor, and you will be responsible for the cleanliness of the
workshop.
You have great organizational skills and a hand on mentality (getting
things done) and you don’t run a way for unforeseen challenges. Having a
helicopter view of the project is very important because a lot of small yet
important things need to be managed. Of course you are keen on working with
children, and especially teenagers.
*Other requirements:*
- Very good English speaking/writing skills
- Excellent computer skills

*What’s in it for you?*
If you join the KDM organization you will get the chance to do great
things. Not only can you help less fortunate teenagers to create a better
future for themselves, you can also expose yourself as a great manager. You
will be working in an international team (Ffrash is managed by a Dutch
team, living in Jakarta as well as in The Netherlands) where you get the
opportunity to set up a whole new business.

*For those who available to work immediately and professionally*, please
send your *application** letter* indicating the applied position, *CV*, and
recent *photograph *in .PDF format (10 pages max, not more than 2MB file
size), no later than February 20th, 2013 to: recruitment.kdm@gmail.com.
