Paid Mentorship Opportunity - Call for applications

The Cape Chamber of Commerce and Industry, in partnership with the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ), is seeking experienced industry professionals to mentor Small, Medium, and Micro Enterprises (SMMEs) from various sectors to improve their businesses through market access either locally and or internationally. We believe that by offering mentoring services, you can help shape the future of these SMMEs and help them grow and succeed.

The GEAP program is a global initiative that provides businesses with access to resources and support to accelerate their growth. As we enter a stage where the onboarded SMME’s will benefit from industry expertise in sharpening their access to market strategies, we believe a seasoned mentor will be able to guide and advise businesses on business improvement capabilities, in market opportunities, and other relevant topics.

Accordingly, we are looking for mentors with experience in various industries, including but not limited to manufacturing, business services, wine, beer, and spirits.

Mentors should have a proven track record of success and be willing to commit their time and knowledge to support SMMEs in the program.

If you are interested in this opportunity, we encourage you to submit your application by May 19th, 2023.

Please include your resume and a brief overview of your relevant experience and qualifications to Tariro at tariro@capechamber.co.za. We will review all applications, including your hourly rate.

Afterward, a shortlist of eligible experts will be compiled for a discussion.
