The Communications Officer plays a central role in shaping FSD Ethiopia’s digital identity and ensuring the organisation communicates its mission, impact, and thought leadership effectively across all digital platforms. As FSDE expands its influence within Ethiopia’s financial sector—supporting financial inclusion, access to capital, and climate finance—the organisation’s ability to present information in a clear, accessible, and visually compelling way becomes essential.
This role is responsible for designing, developing, and maintaining FSDE’s corporate website as the organisation’s primary digital gateway. This includes ensuring an intuitive user experience, strong visual cohesion, responsiveness across devices, and adherence to global standards for accessibility, data protection, and cybersecurity. The role also ensures web content is timely, accurate, and aligned with FSDE’s workstreams, research outputs, and stakeholder engagements.
Beyond technical development, the position requires a strong creative foundation. The Web Developer & Graphics Designer will craft visually engaging materials—from infographics and report layouts to digital campaign assets—that help simplify complex financial concepts for policymakers, partners, private-sector actors, and the public. These products will reflect FSDE’s brand identity and support the organization’s thought leadership and advocacy objectives.
Working within the Communications & Advocacy team, the role supports digital storytelling and brand visibility efforts by creating modern, inclusive, and strategically aligned digital content. The individual will also work closely with program teams, external consultants, and partners to ensure FSDE’s digital products advance gender equality, reflect Ethiopia’s diversity, and meet the communication needs of different audiences.
The primary objective of this position is to plan, develop, manage, and continuously improve FSD Ethiopia’s digital platforms and visual communication assets to ensure the organisation maintains a strong, credible, and accessible digital presence. The role is responsible for ensuring that FSDE’s website and digital products are technically sound, visually consistent, secure, and aligned with the organisation’s strategic priorities across financial inclusion, access to capital, and climate finance. Through effective web administration, graphic design, and collaboration with internal and external stakeholders, the position contributes directly to strengthening FSDE’s communications effectiveness, institutional credibility, and impact within Ethiopia’s financial sector.
