We are looking for passionate and committed people who can work in a highly collaborative environment to deliver results for our clients and stakeholders around the world. Job Description Resonance is seeking candidates to support our team in the role of Fisheries Supply Chain Assessment Consultant for the USAID SFMP project. The Consultant will work closely with the SFMP Livelihoods team and other internal and external stakeholders to identify challenges and opportunities related to supply-chain disruptions to the fisheries supply chain. Specifically, the consultant will assess the impacts of policies that manage traffic and social distancing in markets to prevent the spread of COVID-19, which might reduce fish sales and increase demand for processing or cold storage of fresh fish. S/he will also assess if the Government of Ghana’s program of providing food aid during the outbreak may represent a new market for actors in the fisheries supply chain. The assessment will take place across the four coastal regions of Ghana and involve interviews at up to 5 sites per region, based on initial analysis of travel restrictions and other potential supply chain disruptions. In collaboration with national fisheries associations, the consultant will assess strategies already being used to improve supply chain efficiencies and market linkages (e.g. aggregation, mobile sales) and identify which have potential to scale and where new and innovative approaches are needed. The consultant will work with the SFMP Livelihoods Specialist to identify opportunities for youth to engage in the supply chain both during the pandemic and in future to increase efficiency and market linkages along the chain. The assessment will focus on key aspects of the fisheries supply chain including transportation, processing, storage, logistics, sales and market linkages, with youth and women engagement as a key consideration throughout. The assessment should serve as basis for SFMP and its partners to decide on a way forward in terms of strategies and partnerships to address supply chain disruptions. If disruptions are identified, SFMP plans to organize partnership workshops to present results of the assessment and engage with partners to implement collaborative solutions. This will be a consultant position based remotely, requiring travel within Ghana, from August to mid-October 2020 on a part-time basis. Essential Functions
