Job Description

We need to output clean semantic HTML. Use

for paragraphs,

for section headers. Identify sections: The job description includes many sections. Let's parse. We have: - Title: "Communications Officer" (maybe as

? but it's a job title, maybe

Job title

but spec says use

for section headers like Responsibilities, Qualifications, etc. The job title itself maybe not a section header; but we can treat "Communications Officer" as part of content. However there is a line: Key responsibilities which is a header. Also "Communications Planning and Coordination", "Ethical, Inclusive and Safe Communications", "Other responsibilities", "Qualifications and Experience", "Essential". Also "About Restless Development", "Our approach to safeguarding", "About YIGA", "About the Role". Those are sections but not necessarily h4? The spec says use

for section headers (e.g. Responsibilities, Qualifications, Requirements, Education, Experience, Skills, How to Apply, Key Duties, About the Role). So we should use

for each of those headings. Let's identify which headings correspond. List of headings in text: - About Restless Development -> maybe "About Restless Development" is a section header. Use

About Restless Development

. - Our approach to safeguarding ->

Our approach to safeguarding

. - About YIGA ->

About YIGA

. - About the Role: ->

About the Role

(maybe remove colon). Use

. - Essential -> maybe a subheader, but still a header. Use

Essential

. Also there is "Reports to:", "Direct Reports:", "Expected travel:", etc. Those are not section headers but maybe we can keep as

content. We need to preserve all original content word-for-word. So we must copy the text exactly as appears, including punctuation, line breaks (but we will wrap in

tags). For list items, we need

  • for each bullet. The bullets are already
  • tags in the source. We need to extract the text inside each
  • (the inside). The text includes the content after the . For example:
  • Document YIGA activities, achievements, outcomes, lessons and emerging changes, particularly across Arua, Terego and Madi-Okollo.
  • We need to output the text "Document YIGA activities, achievements, outcomes, lessons and emerging changes, particularly across Arua, Terego and Madi-Okollo." inside
  • . Should we keep the ? No, we need to preserve content word-for-word, but we can strip the tags because they are formatting. The content is the text inside. So we output the text. Similarly for other list items. We also have some


    which are empty paragraphs; we can ignore them (they are just line breaks). The spec says preserve all original content word-for-word, but empty paragraphs maybe not needed. However they are part of content; but they are just
    tags. Probably we can omit empty

    tags because they contain no text. But to be safe, we can include them as

    maybe not needed. The spec: "If text has no clear sections, just wrap paragraphs in

    tags". So we need to wrap any paragraph content in

    . The
    tags are not text; they are line breaks. So we can ignore them. Now we need to construct HTML. Let's list all paragraphs (non-section, non-list) content: - The first lines:

    Communications Officer 

    -> This is a paragraph with bold text "Communications Officer". Should we keep the bold? The spec says use

    for section headers, but this is not a header; it's the job title. It is inside a

    . We need to preserve content word-for-word. The content includes the bold markup. But we need to output clean HTML without markup like . However we must preserve content word-for-word, not rephrase. The content includes "Communications Officer". The is just formatting; we can output plain text "Communications Officer". But we must keep the content exactly as appears, meaning the text "Communications Officer". The bold markup is not part of the content; it's formatting. So we output "Communications Officer". Probably as a

    element. - Next paragraph:

    Apply by 5th October 2026 at 5:00 PM (E.A.T)

    -> content "Apply by 5th October 2026 at 5:00 PM (E.A.T)". We'll output as

    Apply by 5th October 2026 at 5:00 PM (E.A.T)

    . - Then


    empty; ignore. -

    About Restless Development

    -> This is a header; we need to wrap as

    About Restless Development

    . But the spec says use

    for section headers. So we will output

    About Restless Development

    . - Then

    We have worked in Uganda since 1997, guided by four goals shaped by young people: Voice and Democracy, Education and Livelihoods, Gender and Sexual Health, and Climate Justice. We support young people to influence decisions, access quality education and sustainable livelihood opportunities, advance sexual and reproductive health and rights, promote gender equality, and lead action towards a just and sustainable future. We currently work in 26 districts across Northern, North-Eastern, Central and Eastern Uganda, with offices in Kampala, Jinja, Moroto and West Nile.

    YIGA addresses the information gaps, limited opportunities and institutional barriers that prevent young people from influencing decisions about their communities. It helps young people understand local government planning and budgeting, gather evidence on public services, and raise their priorities with elected representatives, officials and community leaders. At the same time, it helps these leaders involve young people in decisions and respond to their concerns through practical action plans and regular follow-up.

    In West Nile, this includes training Youth Accountability Advocates and youth councillors, supporting community barazas and Youth Leader Connect meetings, and monitoring service delivery with local governments. MCI's Youth Information Hub+ combines a physical hub in Arua and Karamoja, mobile and digital engagement approaches and digital resources with civic films, radio, storytelling and media literacy activities. Evidence from both regions will inform the State of Youth Civil Society in Uganda report and National Youth Working Group discussions. Throughout, YIGA seeks to turn informed youth participation into decisions and services that better reflect young people's needs.

Experience working with programme teams to (the text cuts off). The last bullet is incomplete; we need to preserve as is. The text: "Experience working with programme teams to". That's incomplete; maybe continues later but not included. We'll keep exactly as given: "Experience working with programme teams to". Should we include trailing space? We'll copy exactly. Now also there are other paragraphs earlier: "The Communications Officer will lead and coordinate communications and documentation for Restless Development’s contribution to YIGA, with particular responsibility for implementation in West Nile while supporting consistent programme messaging across West Nile, Karamoja and relevant national engagement." That's a paragraph under "About the Role". Also "The role will ensure that programme activities, results, youth perspectives, evidence, learning and stories of change are captured in real time and translated into high-quality communications for young people, partners, donors, government stakeholders and wider audiences.The Communications Officer will work closely with the Communications Coordinator, Programme Manager, Assistant Programme Coordinator, Programme Officer, MEL Coordinator, Advocacy Officer and other Restless Development teams." That's another paragraph. Also "The Officer will also work closely with MCI’s Communications Officer, Production Officers, Graphic Designer, Civic News Reporters and Training Officer. The Communications Officer will primarily provide programme-level communications coordination, documentation, messaging, visibility, quality assurance and linkage between programme evidence and communications, while MCI provides specialised civic-media production, digital dissemination and technical media support. This distinction will ensure complementary rather than duplicated communications functions across the consortium." That's another paragraph. We need to include those paragraphs as

        content, placed before the "Key responsibilities" header? The structure: The "About the Role:" header, then paragraphs describing role. Then "Key responsibilities" header, then list items. So we need to include those paragraphs before the responsibilities header. Let's locate them in the source: After

        About the Role:

        we have:

        These three paragraphs should be included as

        elements, in order. Now also there are other sections earlier: "About Restless Development", "Our approach to safeguarding", "About YIGA". Those are earlier paragraphs. We need to include them as

          We need to preserve content word-for-word. The content includes "Reports to: Communications Coordinator". Should we keep the colon? The text includes "Reports to:" then "Communications Coordinator". So we need to output as

          Communications Officer 

          Apply by 5th October 2026 at 5:00 PM (E.A.T)


          About Restless Development

          We have worked in Uganda since 1997, guided by four goals shaped by young people: Voice and Democracy, Education and Livelihoods, Gender and Sexual Health, and Climate Justice. We support young people to influence decisions, access quality education and sustainable livelihood opportunities, advance sexual and reproductive health and rights, promote gender equality, and lead action towards a just and sustainable future. We currently work in 26 districts across Northern, North-Eastern, Central and Eastern Uganda, with offices in Kampala, Jinja, Moroto and West Nile.


          Our approach to safeguarding

          Restless Development considers the welfare and protection of children, young people and vulnerable adults to be an organisational imperative with primacy over the success of programmes or strategic objectives.


          About YIGA

          Promoting Youth Inclusion in Governance and Decision-making in Uganda (YIGA) is supported by the Royal Danish Embassy under PACER and runs through December 2027. Restless Development leads the consortium with Media Challenge Initiative (MCI) and Karamoja Youth Effort to Save the Environment (KAYESE). Building on implementation in Karamoja, the project is expanding to Arua, Terego and Madi-Okollo in West Nile, alongside activities that bring regional youth priorities into national discussions.

          YIGA addresses the information gaps, limited opportunities and institutional barriers that prevent young people from influencing decisions about their communities. It helps young people understand local government planning and budgeting, gather evidence on public services, and raise their priorities with elected representatives, officials and community leaders. At the same time, it helps these leaders involve young people in decisions and respond to their concerns through practical action plans and regular follow-up.

          In West Nile, this includes training Youth Accountability Advocates and youth councillors, supporting community barazas and Youth Leader Connect meetings, and monitoring service delivery with local governments. MCI's Youth Information Hub+ combines a physical hub in Arua and Karamoja, mobile and digital engagement approaches and digital resources with civic films, radio, storytelling and media literacy activities. Evidence from both regions will inform the State of Youth Civil Society in Uganda report and National Youth Working Group discussions. Throughout, YIGA seeks to turn informed youth participation into decisions and services that better reflect young people's needs.


          Key responsibilities

          • Document YIGA activities, achievements, outcomes, lessons and emerging changes, particularly across Arua, Terego and Madi-Okollo.
          • Identify and develop stories showing how young people are influencing governance, accountability and service delivery.
          • Produce articles, case studies, profiles, newsletters and other communications products for internal and external audiences.
          • Maintain a regular pipeline of stories and documentation opportunities throughout programme implementation.
          • Ensure all stories represent young people accurately, respectfully and with appropriate context.

          Communication of Results and Youth Voice

          • Work with Programme, MEL and Advocacy teams to turn programme evidence, data and learning into clear communications products.
          • Communicate the changes, commitments and results emerging from community barazas, service monitoring, Youth Leader Connect engagements and other activities.
          • Keep young people’s experiences, priorities and solutions at the centre of programme communications.
          • Support young people to communicate their experiences directly through appropriate platforms and formats.
          • Ensure communications reflect diverse voices, including young women, young people with disabilities and others facing barriers to participation.

          Digital Communications and Programme Visibility

          • Develop youth-friendly content for Restless Development’s website, social media and other digital platforms.
          • Coordinate communications coverage of key YIGA activities, campaigns and public engagements.
          • Ensure materials comply with Restless Development branding and donor visibility requirements.
          • Maintain consistent YIGA messaging and identity across West Nile, Karamoja and national-level communications.
          • Organise approved photographs, videos, stories, designs and visibility evidence for reporting and future use.



          Media and Partner Coordination

          • Prepare press releases, media briefs, talking points, key messages and other external communications materials.
          • Support media coverage of programme activities, results, quarterly radio dialogues and other public engagements.
          • Coordinate with MCI on civic-media production, youth-friendly governance materials and dissemination.
          • Share programme priorities, schedules, evidence, participants and emerging stories with relevant MCI teams.
          • Review jointly produced content for accuracy, safeguarding, branding and consistency with agreed programme messages.
