Based
in Juba, South Sudan
Since 1994, the Alliance and its partners have supported over 3,000 projects, in over 40 countries, reaching millions of people.
The Alliance’s
Linking Organisation model emphasises local leadership and governance of
organisations. In light of this, the Alliance seeks to recruit an Executive
Director (ED) to head its operations in South Sudan.
The Executive
Director’s overall responsibilities will be strategic leadership, development
and effective operation of Alliance South Sudan.
The ED’s primary
focus in the initial stages of this assignment will be to lead the transition
of the South Sudan Country Office into an independent Linking Organisation
which will be nationally led, with a locally recruited Board of
Directors.
S/he will report
initially to the Regional Manager: East and Southern Africa at the Alliance
Secretariat in Brighton, UK and after the transition will report directly to
the Board of Directors.
The ED will manage
senior staff, provide leadership on policy matters and strategy development,
resource mobilisation, partnership development and will advocate on key HIV
issues at national and international levels with stakeholders.
The successful
candidate will have a post-graduate management or development qualification,
along with extensive knowledge of the political and economic context in South
Sudan.
