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 this is often suppressed by poverty, violence, exclusion and discrimination. And it’s girls who are most affected.

Working together with children, young people, our supporters and partners, we strive for a just world, tackling the root causes of the challenges facing girls and all vulnerable children.

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.

We have been building powerful partnerships for children for over 80 years, and are now active in more than 70 countries.

Plan International’s holistic, rights-based approach ensures that our project participants achieve their full potential with dignity, opportunity and safety. Our projects are designed in partnership with communities and strategically address systemic issues that often transcend sectors. With extensive local networks and community reach, Plan drives positive change through broad community participation, achieving sustainable results by actively engaging and providing services to individuals, families, communities and governments. Plan International has been working in South Sudan since 2006.

The Opportunity

Plan International is seeking a Deputy Chief of Party (DCOP) to work closely with the Chief of Party (COP) to manage the day-to-day operations of an anticipated USAID funded Youth Engagement Activity in South Sudan. The DCOP’s duties include providing technical input into the design and delivery of the program activities including project design and implementation; identification of key national policy coordination and reform needs; and vocational and technical skills development needs and priorities. The position is contingent upon award of the project and approval by USAID.

Deep knowledge of gender equality and demonstrated experience and proficiency in managing programs that mainstream gender is essential.

Your ability to implement projects with rigorous timelines and deliverables and to track program quality through donor approved monitoring and evaluation systems will be key to the success of this role.
