It’s hard to believe that today over 663million people still don’t have clean, safe water and over 2.4 billion live without a toilet. The resulting diseases kill one child every minute.

As a member of the Senior Management Team (SMT), you are responsible for delivering people, organisational development and administration plans which enable the Country Programme to achieve its strategy and goals.

Key responsibilities include:

• Embed a Performance Management Culture
• Support managers to implement, communicate and sustain change programmes
• Support managers in identifying and maximising potential and drive development through succession planning and individual development planning

• Have extensive experience in a senior HR role and at least five years at senior management level.
• Fully versed with the principles and procedures governing the full employee life cycle. Have a solid experience in developing and steering culture change and a willingness to challenge the status quo are required.
