This role has an operational rather than programmatic focus and is designed to support the technical adviser and specialist to help meet programmatic objectives through cash transfers.

The CVA Programme Manager will be deployed as a field level, within the line management of the Response team leader. The post holder will oversee the implementation of the project in the South and will be expected to support on all aspects of setting up and/or managing all operational areas connected to cash delivery mechanism, including budget development and reporting, partners’ coordination and representation, security, logistics, compliance with internal policies and procedures and management of teams.

EXPERIENCE

  • A demonstrable high level of capacity in project management, budget management, strategy development, and proposal writing. Experience in using internal controls systems to support CVA delivery in the areas of financial management, logistics, and security and programme delivery.
  • Understanding of field level representation with key stakeholders and co-ordination with other NGOs/UN
  • Demonstrable understanding of M&E and beneficiary accountability
  • Excellent planning, management and coordination skills, with the ability to organise a substantial workload comprised of complex, diverse tasks and responsibilities
  • Politically and culturally sensitive with qualities of patience, tact and diplomacy;
  • A high level of written and spoken English is a plus;
  • The capacity and willingness to be extremely flexible and accommodating in difficult and sometimes insecure working circumstances;
  • Good attention to detail;
  • Experience or knowledge of working and living in relevant regions/contexts;
  • Commitment to the aims and principles of Save the Children. In particular, a good understanding of the mandate and child focus and an ability to ensure this continues to underpin our support

We offer a competitive package in the context of the sector.
