Global Partnership for Education (GPE) Program Director
Save the Children is the world’s leading independent organisation for children. We work in 120 countries. We save children’s lives; we fight for their rights; we help them fulfil their potential.
We work together, with our partners, to inspire breakthroughs in the way the world treats children and to achieve immediate and lasting change in their lives.
We have over two million supporters worldwide and raised 1.9 billion dollars last year to reach more children than ever before, through programmes in health, nutrition, education, protection and child rights, also in times of humanitarian crises.
Following a major transition, our international programmes are now delivered through a merged operation with 15,000 staff, managed through seven regional hubs and reporting to a relatively small, central office. We’re changing to become more efficient, more aligned, a better partner, a stronger advocate, a magnet for world-class people and relevant for the 21st century.
Role Purpose: The Global Partnership for Education (GPE) funded Education Sector Program Implementation Grant (ESPIG) is aligned with the priorities of the Somaliland Ministry of Education and Science (MoES), Education Sector Plan (ESP) and with GPE strategic objectives. The program focuses on the primary education sub-sector and seeks to expand equitable access to quality primary education opportunities, improving learning outcomes, ensuring the acquisition of foundational skills at the expected level for each grade, and enhance system capacity at the Somaliland MoES
The Program Director will provide overall strategic leadership and direction for the GPE Program. The Program Director will support the Education Program Manager for the delivery of the program.
The Program Director will work closely with all relevant partners/stakeholders and ensure all activities progress as per the plan. The Director will oversee the timely delivery of all program deliverables. The Director will also ensure the development and operationalization of a robust M&E system for the program, ensuring high quality measurement of outputs, intermediate outcomes, and final outcomes.
