Save the Children is looking for an experienced Deputy Country Director. This post will be responsible for developing and overseeing all Save the Children’s programme work in Nigeria and will have a particular role to facilitate linkages between core Save the Children programmes (Health/Hunger, Child Survival, Education and Child Protection) with two, inter-linked consortia addressing maternal, newborn, and child health (MNCH) and Education in Northern Nigeria.
Globally, Save the Children has prioritized Nigeria as one of the 6 priority countries for developing child survival programming. Work on advocacy, through popular campaigns in particular, will be strengthened, and programming will be expanded to provide a solid evidence base for advocacy. From this already substantial project base within the consortia projects and under the child survival plan, the Deputy Country Director will have the challenging but exciting task of developing a wider portfolio of work for Save the Children in Nigeria and articulating this through Thematic Programme Plans for the coming 3 – 5 years. The Save the Children programme in Nigeria is at an exciting crossroads and is currently engaged in developing its country strategic and child survival plans. This will include development and implementation of the Emergency Preparedness Plan.
Please be aware that applications may be viewed and applicants contacted prior to the close date.
