The business support functions in Finance, Human Resources, Logistics, Administration and IT, have been brought together into one independent, customer centric functional Centre known as the Shared Services Centre (SSC). Consequently, a Shared Services Centre was created to take over all the transactional work currently being carried out in each separate business unit. In the process, there has been significant changes and inevitably significant turnover. It is therefore of essence to create a solid and successful culture of teamwork in the Unit to establish trust, effective communication and maximization of teammate strengths. It is in this regard that the Oxfam SSC is keen to hold a team building training workshop to build on these objectives.

Oxfam Nairobi Shared Services Center (a business support function of Finance, Human Resources, Logistics, Administration and IT) is looking for a facilitator form/organization (maximum of 2 persons) that can facilitate a team building training with key deliverables as detailed in the attached Terms of Reference.
