SNV is a not-for-profit international development organisation that applies practical know-how to make a lasting difference in the lives of people living in poverty. We use our extensive and long-term in-country presence to apply and adapt our top-notch expertise in agriculture, energy and WASH to local contexts. SNV has over 1250 staff in more than 25 countries in Asia, Africa and Latin America. We are proud to be a not-for-profit organisation that uses project financing to implement our mission. This requires us to work efficiently and to invest in operational excellence.
In its new Strategic Plan period (2019 – 2022), SNV will more explicitly aim for systems change during project preparation and implementation – by strengthening institutions and kick-starting markets that help many more to escape poverty beyond our projects. We will continue to position ourselves as a premium organisation and invest in making knowledge flow to and from the frontline.
Job Description
The Goal of the Agriculture Sector at SNV is “More Inclusive, sustainable and resilient food systems which provide diverse nutritious food for all within planetary boundaries”. In order to achieve this, SNV has chosen to work in four areas, which we call products: ‘Inclusive Value Chains’, ‘Sustainable Nutrition for All’, ‘Climate and Business’ and ‘Opportunities for Youth Employment’. Each of these work areas (products) is co-ordinated by a Global Product Coordinator who steers the content and implementation – both internally and externally – of their “product” within the Global Agriculture Team at the Head Office and across all Country Offices of SNV globally.
The Global Nutrition Coordinator– under the leadership of the Global Head of Agriculture – develops and continuously improves the description and the methods, tools and approaches of all nutrition related work of SNV. The “Sustainable Nutrition For All” (SN4A) product of SNV recognises the importance of taking a food system lens and works closely with SNV’s Inclusive Value Chain Development Product, applying both a demand and supply side strategy to address food and nutrition insecurity, integrating the key pillars of demand creation through triggering, social and behaviour change communication (SBCC), improved supply and market development of safe, affordable and nutritious diets year round and strengthened sub-national governance. Recognising that improvement in nutritional outcomes are affected by gender roles within households, SN4A includes relevant tools to promote gender equality. SN4A applies a systems approach to nutrition in order to create a new norm where stunting is no longer invisible.
The Global Product Coordinator Nutrition monitors and manages the quality of project development and implementation for all SNV projects globally that include Nutrition components in order to support project teams around the globe to create sustainable impact while achieving agreed revenue and margin targets. Key aspects of this include developing and nurturing relationships with key donors, leading and contributing to the development of funding proposals, building capacity of staff around the world and providing technical assistance directly to project teams. The Coordinator steers the knowledge sharing and learning agenda on Nutrition across SNV and guides Agriculture Sector Leaders and Project Managers in up to 27 SNV Country Offices on theories and best practice relating to sustainable nutrition.
The Global Product Coordinator Nutrition represents SNV with key nutrition stakeholders and at selected events at international and occasionally at national level, building partnerships with relevant actors (companies, research institutions, universities, donors etc) through professional profiling and by promoting SNV’s strategy, vision and level of (product and project) knowledge. The Coordinator identifies and enters global partnerships with knowledge institutes in consultation with the Global Head of Agriculture.
