Senior Communications Director – US

PROJECT BACKGROUND:
The USAID Africa Trade and Investment (ATI) program is designed to bolster the U.S. Government’s ability to boost trade and investment to, from, and within the African continent. The continent-wide program is USAID’s flagship effort in support of the Prosper Africa initiative and will expand and accelerate two-way trade and investment between African nations and the United States.

Driven by market demand, ATI embraces innovative approaches to achieve its goals. ATI is designed as a small, core set of centrally coordinated technical and institutional support activities, and a large, flexible performance-based subcontracting and grants under contract facility designed to support the needs and opportunities that USAID Missions and the private sector identify.

ROLE’S PURPOSE:
The Senior Communications Director will manage all areas of project communications and reporting, internally and externally. S/he will update and oversee the implementation of ATI’s communications strategy. S/he will ensure that the project team generates pertinent, value-added information, based on data, lessons learned and best practices that support ATI’s learning agenda. S/he will manage a team of communications professionals in D.C. and on the African continent to prepare communications products based on this information and disseminate these products regularly to USAID and stakeholders. S/he will also maintain a resources portal of ATI products and relevant stakeholder work on the Continent, and directly circulate resources as appropriate. The ATI learning agenda will help project team members, USAID and continental stakeholders make the necessary adjustments of program activities to changing operational contexts and needs as implementation progresses and work smarter to accomplish their development goals. This approach will also demonstrate project accountability and effectiveness.

KEY DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES:
The Senior Director of Communications will be responsible for, but not limited to, the following detailed tasks:

  • Support the representation of ATI at large scale events and meetings as required and liaise with relevant stakeholders, including institutional and private sector partners, to increase visibility and maximize coordination.
  • Review materials generated for ATI sponsored events such as national and international trade fairs – organize, brand, produce required marketing materials, and facilitate business participation.
  • Develop, approve and update promotional materials to ensure program materials are branded correctly and consistently.
  • Ensure program events and successes are appropriately promoted through local media, distribution to USAID, and posted on appropriate websites.
  • Serve as liaison with media groups to cover specific and relevant project activities, such as opening and closing ceremonies.
  • Contribute towards the production of briefing books for VIPs participating in ATI sponsored events.
  • Monitor press coverage of ATI efforts and share materials with relevant USAID and Prosper Africa counterparts.
  • Lead and mentor ATI’s communications team, building their capacity to develop content from project activities; support the team with templates and reporting guidelines as needed.
  • Manage a stable of STTAs and communications firms to ensure ATI has adequate surge capacity and necessary expertise in videography, graphic design, media relations, event management, and web content development, as applicable.
  • Engage key stakeholders and members of the partner network through a regular communication. Develop scopes of work and budgets in response to new USAID requests for communications support and ensuring quality implementation and careful budget management.

  • La Nivelación de Partes Móviles: Esencial para una Operación Sin Vibraciones

    ¿ Has percibido alguna vez temblores inusuales en un equipo industrial? ¿O sonidos fuera de lo común? Muchas veces, el problema está en algo tan básico como una falta de simetría en un elemento móvil. Y créeme, ignorarlo puede costarte bastante dinero .

    El equilibrado de piezas es un procedimiento clave en la producción y cuidado de equipos industriales como ejes, volantes, rotores y partes de motores eléctricos . Su objetivo es claro: impedir oscilaciones que, a la larga, puedan provocar desperfectos graves.

    ¿Por qué es tan importante equilibrar las piezas?
    Imagina que tu coche tiene una llanta mal nivelada . Al acelerar, empiezan las vibraciones, el volante tiembla, e incluso puedes sentir incomodidad al conducir . En maquinaria industrial ocurre algo similar, pero con consecuencias aún peores :

    Aumento del desgaste en soportes y baleros
    Sobrecalentamiento de partes críticas
    Riesgo de fallos mecánicos repentinos
    Paradas imprevistas que exigen arreglos costosos
    En resumen: si no se corrige a tiempo, un pequeño desequilibrio puede convertirse en un gran dolor de cabeza .

    Métodos de equilibrado: cuál elegir
    No todos los casos son iguales. Dependiendo del tipo de pieza y su uso, se aplican distintas técnicas:

    Equilibrado dinámico
    Perfecto para elementos que operan a velocidades altas, tales como ejes o rotores . Se realiza en máquinas especializadas que detectan el desequilibrio en múltiples superficies . Es el método más exacto para asegurar un movimiento uniforme .
    Equilibrado estático
    Se usa principalmente en piezas como neumáticos, discos o volantes de inercia. Aquí solo se corrige el peso excesivo en una sola superficie . Es ágil, práctico y efectivo para determinados sistemas.
    Corrección del desequilibrio: cómo se hace
    Taladrado selectivo: se elimina material en la zona más pesada
    Colocación de contrapesos: tal como en neumáticos o perfiles de poleas
    Ajuste de masas: típico en bielas y elementos estratégicos
    Equipos profesionales para detectar y corregir vibraciones
    Para hacer un diagnóstico certero, necesitas herramientas precisas. Hoy en día hay opciones accesibles y muy efectivas, como :
