Institutional Donor Partnerships Development Specialist

The Opportunity

Save the Children International has an exciting opportunity for you to join our team as the Institutional Donor Partnerships Development Specialist in the UK or in specific existing Save the Children International office locations.

ROLE PURPOSE:

Save the Children has agreed an ambitious new global strategy for 2022-24 and has developed an accompanying Global Funding Framework to inform and shift how SCA can work together as a movement to drive greater funding impact for children. By 2024 our ambition is for Save the Children to be a $3bn plus organisation, with institutional funding constituting around 60% of this income. Growing, diversifying and optimising our institutional income will be critical to achieving this ambition and success in this area will be dependent on changes to our behaviours and ways of working that mark and facilitate a shift to prioritise collaboration and embed mutual accountability.

The Institutional Partnerships Development Specialist roles are part of the Save the Children International (SCI) Centre office’s Programme Funding and Institutional Partnerships (PFIP) team, which works across the global Save the Children Movement to optimise and align our programme funding portfolio in support of our ambition for children and to drive improvements to our ways of working with institutional partners.

Over the past 3 years, the PFIP team has worked to establish quality foundations and drive continuous improvement in institutional partnership management practices and performance across the Movement. It has also led and piloted new initiatives – such as the Big Bets framework - to identify new and existing partnerships with high potential for quality growth and development and ensure collective support to realise their potential. This work has been carried out with the support and close collaboration of Save the Children Member offices who lead and manage the external relationships with partners as well as the internal account management.

The specific purpose of the Institutional Partnerships Development Specialist role is to build on these foundations to ensure targeted and timely support to a set of ‘focus’ accounts and Member offices and continue to develop a strong culture of learning and mutual accountability around our institutional partnership work. The post holder will strengthen and improve ways of working across teams and offices, identify and roll out partnership and account management best practice approaches, processes, tools and systems, enhance accountabilities and performance and maximise the efficiency and effectiveness of the account management set up. The role will also support the development of effective communities of practice around institutional funding and partnership management to share learnings and best practice globally.

This work will include close collaboration with the other parts of the PFIP team (Insight Development; Portfolio Development; People Development; Governance and Strategy Development) and with other teams at SCI Centre. It will rely on strong and productive relationships with partnership development specialists and institutional funding teams across the members and with relevant SCI teams, principally at the regional level. In the event of a major humanitarian emergency, the role holder will be expected to work outside the normal role profile and be able to vary working hours accordingly.

Essential

Significant experience and knowledge of institutional donor partnership management, or comparative experience.
Knowledge of general and donor-specific good practices in institutional partnership management (both internal and external)

This role can be based in the UK, or in a specific existing Save the Children International Regional or Country office location on approval, provided the successful candidate has proof of eligibility to work from the preferred location.
