enterprise development. Honey harvested from beehives hung by women’s
groups is jarred and sold under the Mama Asali brand. TPW is seeking a
passionate, energetic and hard-working individual to fill the position
of Conservation Enterprise and Marketing Officer. The successful
candidate will be responsible for developing the Mama Asali brand into
an income-generating, social enterprise for TPW and its community
partners. Responsibilities will include developing the full hive to
market value chain, developing women’s cooperatives, establishing market
linkages between the cooperatives and larger resellers, and ensuring
the overall profitability of the enterprise. Preference will be given to

impressive communication and interpersonal skills, the ability to work
