Digital Revenue Strategy Implementation Officer

Details

Mission and objectives

UNICEF was established in 1946 to supply emergency relief to millions of children suffering in the aftermath of World War II. The organization still functions to ease the suffering of millions of children in emergency situations across the world. UNICEF also focuses on the protection and promotion of child rights, working for the survival, protection, education and healthy development of every child.
UNICEF has worked in Jordan since 1952 to promote and protect the rights of children. In the following decades, significant progress has been achieved for children. Since the beginning of the Syrian crisis in 2013, UNICEF has significantly increased its operation to respond to the challenges faced by both refugee children and those in the communities where they live.
Building on the lessons learned from this emergency response, UNICEF Jordan moved to a vulnerability approach in 2018 – supporting interventions that target the most vulnerable children in the country, regardless of their nationality.

Context

The assigned UN Volunteer will support UNICEF’s project to grow on a digital transformation journey to increase revenues and make an impact on children’s lives around the world. He/she will be supporting the Digital Strategy implementation Specialist and the Resource Mobilization and Communications Teams in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) Regional Office, based in Amman, Jordan. He/she will be working with highly committed and performance-driven teams responsible for overseeing the start-up of an Individual Giving (IG) fundraising program that is exploring creative and innovative strategies to engage and cultivate relationships with individual donors in MENA, particularly Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries, contributing to the diversification of sustainable and quality income streams for UNICEF. The role will be guided and supported by senior colleagues in the digital team in PFP or a digital agency.
UNICEF is at an exciting time as it expands its digital footprint, and great professionals to support this challenge are needed.
