0
0
Country: United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland
Organization: Plan International UK
Closing date: 3 Jan 2023

12 months Fixed Term Contract

£42,297 per annum

Plan International UK is a global children’s charity. We strive to advance children’s rights and equality for girls all over the world.

Working together with children, young people, our supporters and partners, we're tackling the root causes of gender inequality and child poverty, and we are now active in more than 70 countries worldwide.

An opportunity has arisen for a Programme Specialist to join the Humanitarian Unit focused on the Ukraine response on a fixed term basis.

In this role you will:

  • Support the development of Plan International UK’s humanitarian portfolio, including programming that addresses disaster risk, and strengthens community resilience in the Ukraine Response
  • Develop and manage a significant part of Plan International UK’s humanitarian grants portfolio
  • Work across various areas, including grant management, programme development, and relationship building both internally and externally
  • Act as a resource for the international organisation, providing support to disaster response on a deployment basis if required

You will need a solid background of designing and implementing humanitarian and DRR-Resilience projects and of securing and overseeing projects from major humanitarian donors (such as FCDO, DEC, Start Network, UN). You will also have experience of working in consortium to raise and manage major donor grants and the proven ability to develop and oversee grant funded programmes across all phases of the programme cycle. Experience with multi-country projects and consortia, as well as experience with the Disasters Emergency Committee is highly desirable. You’ll be able to demonstrate good knowledge of the role of children in development and humanitarian work, particularly in relation to child rights and participation.

As a Programme Specialist with a varied and wide workload, you will have demonstrable ability to prioritise work and use your time effectively while paying close attention to details to produce high quality work. We would also like to see strong communication skills – listening, questioning, and giving feedback as well as informing. Working through partners and/or in consortia is a key part of the role and your influencing and negotiating skills will therefore play a large part in helping build and maintain mutually beneficial relationships with our internal and external stakeholders.

The deadline for applications is 11:00am (UK time) on 3 January 2023.

Interviews will take place between 9 and 13 January 2023.

We are committed to the safeguarding and protection of children, young people and adults in our work. We, therefore, apply rigorous recruitment and selection processes to ensure that only those who are suitable are recruited to work for us. Accordingly, appointment to all our roles is subject to a range of vetting checks and for this role this will include a Basic Disclosure and Barring (DBS) check. A criminal record will not necessarily bar you from working for us; this will depend on the circumstances of any offences

Plan International UK is committed to being an inclusive employer and we welcome applications from candidates from all backgrounds
