Senior Government Relations Lead

Overview

Click Learning is tackling South Africa's education crisis with smart, scalable solutions that make a real difference. We deliver interactive online programmes that boost literacy, numeracy, and digital skills for primary school learners in under-resourced communities. By combining technology with on-the-ground support, we re helping children build the foundations they need for long-term success and to build sustainable livelihoods. As a secondary outcome, we create jobs for previously unemployed youth to support in the schools and provide them with skills development to move onto better employment opportunities.

We re growing—and we re looking for people who want their work to matter.

The Senior Government Relations Lead will oversee Click Learning s efforts to shift from being a programme implementer to a fully institutionalised system partner for digital learning in the four provinces where Click Learning currently operates. In order to accomplish this ambitious goal, the Government Relations Lead will collaborate with senior leaders at Click Learning to develop institutionalisation plans and engage with government stakeholders to align strategies with provincial education priorities for each province.

The role requires close collaboration with the Direct Operations team to maintain positive relationships with stakeholders and provide strategic support for policy and programme alignment initiatives.

This role s key focus is to facilitate communication, ensure regulatory compliance and cultivate strong relationships with key government officials and stakeholders. The Senior Government Relations Lead will report to the Director of Programmes and Government Relations. Please note this role will require significant travel across Mpumalanga, Western Cape, Eastern Cape and Gauteng.
