The role

We are looking for an Administrator to join the team at an exciting time for our work in Kenya where we have a growing portfolio of computing education partnerships and programmes in school and community settings.

Reporting to the Programme Manager - Kenya, the Administrator will provide high-quality support to the Kenyan team. The ideal candidate will have experience of working with a broad range of educators and volunteers, and will understand the importance of providing effective support. You will be a proactive and efficient administrator, capable and confident using a range of digital tools, ideally including Salesforce. You will have an agile attitude to work, and you'll be ready to try new approaches, evaluate, and iterate.

You don't need to be an expert in computing or digital making, but you do need to bring a passion for our mission and a willingness to learn.

We strive to make the Raspberry Pi Foundation a place where talented people from all backgrounds can do the best work of their careers. We have a flexible and collaborative approach to all aspects of our work. If you're the right person for the job, we will make it work for you.

About Us

The Raspberry Pi Foundation is an independent charity with a global mission to enable all young people to realise their full potential through the power of computing and digital technologies.

We empower schools to teach computer science and AI literacy through free curricula, classroom resources, purpose built software tools, and professional development for teachers. We inspire young people to become tech creators through the world's largest networks of coding clubs. We undertake original research that informs our work and which we use to advance the field of computer science education more broadly.

All of our resources and learning experiences are available for anyone to use at no cost. We are particularly focused on creating opportunities for young people who experience educational disadvantage and those who come from backgrounds traditionally underrepresented in technology industries.

Over the past decade, we have supported hundreds of thousands of educators and tens of millions of students. We have teams in six countries (India, Ireland, Kenya, South Africa, the UK and US) and partnerships with mission-aligned non-profit organisations in over 60 countries.

We are at the forefront of the global educational movement to expand access to computer science education and AI literacy. You can learn more about our work in our latest Annual Report.
