Save the Children NORAD Framework Programme Manager Jobs in South Sudan

The Programme will be implemented in and around 40 schools across two states and target girls and boys, aged 3-18.

There is a focus on the most deprived children, who in the South Sudanese context include children with disabilities (CwD), out-of-school children and teenage mothers.
