Copywriter (Social and Non-profit Focus) job at Flip Africa | Apply Now

The FLIP Africa platform is a freelance marketplace where small and growing businesses can hire experienced, rated, short-term talent at the click of a button.

FLIP Africa was founded in 2018 in Kampala, Uganda in recognition of failing economic systems in the country and across the African continent. Uganda has the second youngest population in the world, with 78% of the population under 35. Yet more than 90% of the country’s labour force is un-, under- or vulnerably employed.

In 2015, Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM) ranked Uganda as the most entrepreneurial country in the world, but micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs), which form the backbone of the Ugandan economy, are marred by low growth. While almost 10% of Ugandans started a business in 2015, MSMEs were closed at twice that rate.
