As UNICEF Pacific enters its second year of the new Multi Country Programme (MCP) 2023 – 2027, there is heightened commitment to enhancing joint and complementary work with regional organizations, non-government and faith-based organizations, academia, donors, other UN entities and governments.
To realize the MCP vision, UNICEF Pacific’s Child Protection Team is expanding partnerships with Pacific based organizations laying the foundation for programs for the next few years in a number of key areas. To progress this, there is an urgent need to identify opportunities and leverage resources and influence increased investment in social sectors, particularly on child protection and wellbeing in a manner that is sustainable and culturally relevant to the Pacific context. Partnerships will be expanded with traditional leaders, faith-based organizations and national NGOs to enable community dialogues that are inclusive, build trust and lead to behaviour change.
This renewed focus on local actors aims to reinvigorate partnerships and amplify resource mobilization and improve measurement of change. Importantly, this includes inputs into the DFAT design process to inform the 2025 – 2028 partnership, for which DFAT have provided dedicated resources toward the design; and also core to this task will be the development of monitoring and measurement tools for the child protection team and partners.
A dedicated person is required to support the team through the DFAT redesign process, technical assistance for monitoring work and in convening partners and co-designing documents required for two key deliverables identified. The person will split days in between his/her home and UNICEF Pacific Office in Suva, Fiji, with some travel days to Vanuatu, Solomon Islands, Kiribati, Samoa and Federated States of Micronesia.
To qualify as an advocate for every child you will have… 
Education:  
  • A master’s degree in international development, Public Policy, Development Program Evaluation, or any related social science discipline with extensive experience with and knowledge of fundraising, and applied research methods, and monitoring and evaluation.
Experience, Skills and Language:  
  • Minimum of 10 years of professional experience in social affairs, protection, gender action, research, monitoring and evaluation.
  • Experience in proposal writing.
  • Experience in facilitating consultations/meetings to bring consensus to discussions.
  • Good understanding of gender and equity issues in the Pacific.
  • Ability to synthesize information succinctly and accurately and a track record of producing high quality evidence products.
  • Adaptability and flexibility, client orientation, initiative, concern for accuracy and quality.
  • Knowledge of challenges and issues in CP in the Pacific Region will be an asset.
  • Experience working with UNICEF is an advantage.
