Solve Education! is seeking a Program Assistant who is organised, resourceful, passionate with humanitarian issue, energetic, emphatic, and ready to execute with precision in a fast-paced, mission-driven environment. This role calls for strong coordination skills, attention to detail, and the ability to manage multiple priorities while keeping programs running smoothly. You will support the implementation of educational initiatives, coordinate activities, and ensure operational excellence — all while collaborating closely with the program team to deliver meaningful impact.
We value adaptability, ownership, and a commitment to continuous improvement. If you thrive on making things happen, keeping plans on track, and finding solutions when challenges arise, this is your opportunity to contribute directly to work that changes lives.
Before You Apply
This role is not routine or heavily guided. As a Program Assistant, you’ll be expected to manage shifting priorities, support multiple workstreams simultaneously, and ensure tasks are completed with accuracy and timeliness. You must remain composed under pressure, take full ownership of your responsibilities, and deliver organized, reliable outputs — even when timelines are tight or directions change quickly. If you’re seeking a role that will stretch your capacity, sharpen your adaptability, and accelerate your growth, we want to hear from you.
What You’ll Be Responsible For
You will support the effective coordination and delivery of programs by providing operational, administrative, and monitoring assistance to ensure smooth execution and continuous improvement.
- Program Coordination & Support: Assist with planning, organising, and coordinating program activities and events. Maintain workplans, schedules, documentation, and logistics, and coordinate with internal teams and external partners to support timely execution and issue resolution.
- Monitoring & Data Support: Support monitoring and evaluation activities, including data collection, entry, and reporting. Contribute to basic analysis of feedback and results to inform program improvements.
- Administrative & Operational Assistance: Provide administrative support such as procurement coordination, meeting scheduling, note-taking, follow-ups, and maintenance of organised filing systems. Ensure timely availability of program materials and resources.
- Stakeholder Engagement Support: Assist with communications and coordination involving beneficiaries, partners, and stakeholders, including meetings, training sessions, and events.
- Team Collaboration: Work collaboratively with team members to support program objectives and contribute to a positive, well-organised team environment.
What We’re Looking For
- Based in Bandung (on-site) or willing to relocate to Bandung
- Bachelor’s degree in a relevant field (e.g., Development Studies, Project Management, Social Sciences, Education, or related discipline).
- 1-2 years of experience in program management, project management, or equivalent leadership roles.
- Good understanding of project coordination, administration, and logistics.
- Familiarity with monitoring and evaluation concepts is an advantage.
- Strong organisational skills and attention to detail.
- Good communication and interpersonal skills to work with diverse teams and stakeholders.
- Ability to multitask and manage priorities effectively in a fast-paced environment.
- Proficiency in Google Workspace or Microsoft Office.
- Experience working in or with NGOs, with an understanding of sector challenges and opportunities.
You’ll be joining a team with a big mission. We don’t expect perfection, but we do expect effort, ownership, and a strong learning attitude. If you’re looking for a quiet job with step-by-step instructions, this may not be the right fit. But if you’re ready for growth, responsibility, and real impact, we’d love to hear from you.
