Fresh Life Initiative Senior Strategy Associate Jobs in Kenya


  • Fresh Life Initiative (FLI) is an award-winning social venture that makes hygienic sanitation accessible and affordable in Africa’s urban slums for everyone, forever.

  • Our systems-based approach to solving the sanitation crisis involves five key steps: we build a dense network of franchised micro-entrepreneurs, who operate low-cost, high-quality waterless sanitation facilities. We provide critical support services – such as access to finance, training, marketing and business analytics.

  • We collect the waste regularly and safely remove it from the community. Working with our sanitation partners we convert the waste into valuable by-products, such as organic fertilizer and renewable energy. Finally, we sell the by-products to Kenyan farms.

  • Since November 2011, we have launched over 3000 Fresh LifeToilets to a network of 2500 micro-entrepreneurs and we collect and convert over 9000 tons of waste annually.

  • We are seeking a Senior Strategy Associate.
