Protection Programme Manager, Nigeria
Closing Date: Tuesday, 17 May 2011
Save the Children is committed to making a critical contribution towards the achievement of a two-thirds reduction in child mortality globally by 2015. As part of our Change for Children strategy, we have committed ourselves to a child survival breakthrough as a top priority: Over the next decade, dramatically fewer children will die under the age of five: because Save the Children has saved many more lives ourselves, because we have succeeded in getting governments to do the same on a much larger scale, and because public pressure will no longer tolerate high levels of child mortality anywhere. Nigeria is one of five premier/top priority countries for the campaign.
The protection programme manager will be responsible for the overall management of the five year USAID Cooperative Agreement for Links for Children, a programme supporting Orphans and other Vulnerable Children across three states in Northern Nigeria. S/he will provide strategic and operational leadership to successfully implement the multi sectoral programme that will be entering its third year in October 2011.
The post holder will lead in developing Save the Children's Protection (encompassing HIV/AIDS) thematic area and building the capacity of the team in policy and practice.
Our selection processes reflect our commitment to the protection of children from abuse. Our people are as diverse as the challenges we face.
