Vacancies: Finance Positions, Nairobi, Kenya
Employer: Bridge International Academies
Bridge International Academies is a for-profit startup company revolutionizing
education across Africa with a unique business model.
The company runs a large-scale network of low-cost primary schools in Kenya
that significantly outperforms other primary schools in the same areas because
of our “school in a box” systems.
Our schools profitably deliver this high-quality education for less than $4 per
child per month, which enable the schools to cover all their costs and create a
profitable central organization at scale.
We have launched 37 schools in Kenya, will double in size in the next 6 months,
and plan to rapidly scale the company to serve more than 1 million students
across the continent.
