Plan International strives to advance children's rights and equality for girls all over the world.

French fluency is a requirement for this role, due to the geographic coverage.

You will also have experience of working in consortium to raise and manage major donor grants and the proven ability to develop and oversee grant funded programmes across all phases of the programme cycle.
