C-re-aid starts a social enterprise, which will make quality handmade furniture made from local materials and sell on location. The Business Development will be responsible for the design, development and quality control of the furniture. The Director of Business Development is responsible for all sales and marketing activities of the agency and implementation of the business development plan, which includes: prospecting, lead generation and qualification, presentation development and follow-up.

C-re-a.i.d.: -Change -REsearch -Architecture -Innovation -Design is a Tanzanian and Belgian registered non-profit organisation; which conducts research by design on the possibilities of architecture. This is accomplished by the different branches of C-re-aid, including fieldwork, organizing construction, empowering local craftsmen and receiving students of architecture, interior architecture, engineering, and product design.
With architecture being the professional background of the founder of C-re-aid, the concentration of the organisation lays on housing in informal settlements. The organisation is active since 2012 and has conducted several projects in rural areas of Moshi, Tanzania. The projects are conducted with the assistance of students and aim to create cooperation between the C-re-aid team, students and beneficiaries. C-re-aid collaborates on projects with families of various backgrounds, social relations and material possessions. However, the crucial similarity is that all the families received assistance from C-re-aid to make a specific material change. Thus, while the projects themselves are different, their common baseline is the research to the reception of a material change.
After 2 successful years, C-re-aid is ready to grow and to expand. As an income generating model, the organization is establishing a social enterprise that is designing, developing and distributing quality
handmade furniture made from local and recycled materials. Together with a growing team of designers, craftsmen and young trainees you will work on the realization of an income generating model for C-re-aid.
