Company: Plan International

The Organisation

 

Plan International is an independent development and humanitarian organisation that advances children’s rights and equality for girls. We believe in the power and potential of every child but know this is often suppressed by poverty, violence, exclusion and discrimination. And it is girls who are most affected.

 

Working together with children, young people, supporters and partners, we strive for a just world, tackling the root causes of the challenges girls and vulnerable children face. We support children’s rights from birth until they reach adulthood and we enable children to prepare for and respond to crises and adversity. We drive changes in practice and policy at local, national and global levels using our reach, experience and knowledge.

 

For over 85 years, we have rallied other determined optimists to transform the lives of all children in more than 80 countries.

 

We won’t stop until we are all equal.

 

The Opportunity

 

Our new global strategy prioritises humanitarian scale up.

 

To respond to the growing unmet needs in emergencies and to strengthen the speed, quality, relevance and appropriateness of our emergency response and readiness work, we are investing in our  humanitarian deployable capacity.

 

The Deployable Education in Emergencies (EiE) Specialist is a member of Plan International’s Global Education in Emergencies team under the Education in Humanitarian Action Unit. While on deployment the specialist provides technical support to Plan International’s Country Offices (COs). This normally involves responding to medium and large-scale emergencies to develop, implement, monitor and evaluate EiE programmes. When not on deployment the specialist contributes to Plan’s EiE overall workplan. This may include continued follow up from a distance with deployment countries.

 

This is a fantastic opportunity to gain valuable experience in a wide range of countries and contexts at a time of humanitarian investment for Plan International.
