Fixed-term contract, maternity cover
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.
We are looking for a Senior Programme Development Manager (Asia and West Africa) with exceptional business development and donor management skills to join our Development Programme Unit on a fixed-term basis.
In this role, you will lead a team of Programme Development Specialists to develop high quality, gender sensitive and innovative commercial tender and grants submission in collaboration with our Country Offices. You will play a pivotal role in building and maintaining strong relationships with key institutional donors. You will have a proven track record of pre-positioning, developing, reviewing and winning institutional donor funding in a competitive setting, particularly from FCDO, the EC or multilateral donors.
This is a high-visibility, high-impact role responsible for leading large-scale, complex bid processes. You’ll therefore be adept at engaging and influencing at all levels.
The deadline for applications is 9am on Monday 7 June.
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 / Enhanced 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
