The section supports programmes improving the nutrition, health, well-being and development of adolescent girls, women and children across Mainland Tanzania and Zanzibar, and the assignment strengthens documentation of programme results, evidence and lessons learned. The consultant will design and lay out knowledge management products such as reports, guidelines, policy briefs, case studies, bulletins and learning materials, and develop visual communication products including infographics, banners and other advocacy and visibility materials for print and digital platforms. A central task is translating complex technical content, programme data, research findings and human-interest stories into clear, engaging visual formats for diverse audiences.

Advanced skills in Adobe Creative Suite (InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop, After Effects) and other design, layout and animation software are required, along with the ability to turn advocacy objectives into compelling visual concepts.

Fluency in English is mandatory. Desirable qualifications include prior work with UNICEF Tanzania, experience with another UN agency, a strong multi-format portfolio, and demonstrated design work on nutrition and food systems. The engagement is an individual consultancy; the posting does not state a duty station, travel expectations or reporting line.
