Programme Specialist Education in Emergencies –

Disaster Risk Management Unit (DRMU) Permanent contract

£41,468 per annum

Plan International strives to advance children’s rights and equality for girls all over the world.

An opportunity has arisen for a Programme Specialist in Education in Emergencies to join the Disaster Risk Management Unit on a permanent basis.

In this role you will:

· Support the development of Plan International UK’s disasters and emergencies portfolio, including programming that addresses disaster risk, and strengthens community resilience

  • Provide technical advisory support to Education in Emergencies projects and initiatives and represent Plan International UK in Education in Emergencies networks.

· Develop and manage a significant part of Plan International UK’s disasters 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 (specifically in Education in Emergencies) 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. 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. Working capacity of either Spanish or French would be a desirable asset for this role.

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.
