Expert Application Advice
What this role involves
You'll lead financial literacy training for smallholder farmers, helping them access credit, savings, and insurance products. Expect to travel between Kabwe and Lusaka to deliver group sessions, track client repayment behavior, and collaborate with field teams to refine advisory materials based on real-time farmer feedback.
Key skills to highlight
Proven experience in microfinance or agricultural advisory, fluency in Bemba/Nyanja (strongly preferred), and ability to simplify complex financial concepts for rural audiences. Data analysis skills (Excel or Google Sheets) for tracking loan performance are a plus.
Taf4All CV tip
Add a short "Field Impact" section listing 2–3 quantifiable outcomes from past roles—e.g., "Trained 200+ farmers in loan literacy, reducing default rates by 15% over 6 months." This mirrors One Acre Fund’s focus on measurable results.
Before you apply
One Acre Fund never charges application fees or requests bank details upfront. Verify the recruiter’s email ends in @oneacrefund.org and cross-check the posting on their official careers page. Report any suspicious requests to local authorities.
🎯 Make your application ATS-ready
ATS (Applicant Tracking Systems) are the software recruiters use to automatically filter CVs before any human reads them. Our CV builder is specifically designed to pass these filters — and it takes under 3 minutes.

- •Never pay any amount of money — for a file, a training, a uniform, or an interview. A real employer never asks the candidate to pay.
- •Never send a photo of your ID card, passport, or banking details before you have physically verified the employer exists.
- •Always meet in a public place, during the day — never an isolated address, a private home, or a location you cannot verify in advance.
- •Tell a relative or friend exactly where you are going, with whom, and at what time — and share your live location if possible.
- •Search the company name online before going: a real business has a trace (website, reviews, other employees, an official address).
- •A salary that is far above the market rate for the position and the city is a red flag — be extra cautious.
