You'll also help coordinate programme resources and ensure activities meet safeguarding and safety requirements.

This Could Be a Great Fit If…

• You have experience designing, planning or managing community development, education or social-impact programmes.
• You're confident guiding and developing others, providing constructive feedback and supporting programme delivery teams.
• You understand programme monitoring, evaluation and how to use evidence to improve outcomes.
• You can build meaningful relationships across cultures and work collaboratively with community partners.
• You're organised, adaptable and comfortable taking ownership of programme decisions.
