If the answer is yes, then we would like to hear from you.

The Role:
As a senior national influencing & active citisenship advisor, you will support influencing, advocacy and campaigns at a country level and ensure this collectively led work generates knowledge, evidence and learning.

We develop strategies to maximise adaptability and agility, encourage forward thinking, new ideas and learning from experience.
• Enabling – work to effectively empower and enable others to deliver the organisations goals through creating conditions of success. We passionately invest in others by developing their careers, not only their skills for the job. We give more freedom and demonstrate belief and trust, underpinned with appropriate support.

• Strong ability to motivate, inspire and support others in learning and adopting new approaches and ways of working
• Good understanding and commitment to continuous learning in order to embed a decolonial, safe, anti-racist, intersectional feminist and partner-led approach in your work
• Experience of integrating a focus on women’s rights and gender justice, and support to feminist and youth movements into programme and influencing strategies
