About the role

This is a very exciting role and an excellent opportunity for an individual who is passioned, and counts with the right knowledge and practical experience, of protection and inclusion work in the humanitarian and development sector. If you were to be selected, you will be part of a multicultural and diverse team of advisors with colleagues based across multiple CA's working regions (Africa, Asia, LAC).

The role will support the organisational delivery of Christian Aid’s Programme Quality Management Approach and Gender Justice Strategy, providing direction and technical input to embed Christian Aid’s inclusive programming approach globally. The post-holder will lead on protection and inclusion within the Programme Quality and Operations division but also link up more widely across the International Department in policy and practice.

The post-holder will primarily support our humanitarian and development programmes, and advocacy projects when required. The post holder will work closely with our Gender Justice lead to convene global staff contributing towards this agenda, support strategy development and impact measurement, develop resources and training packages.

The post holder will be expected to train CA staff and partners in understanding gender, inclusion and protection, collate global learning and respond to country programming support needs on gender, protection work in humanitarian or development settings (particularly GBV) and inclusion with a particular focus on people with disabilities and older people.

The post-holder will also engage with networks in the aid sector, strengthening existing linkages on gender, age, disability and other intersecting inequalities.
