Programme Development Manager

We are looking for a dynamic programme development manager to join Tearfund's Programme Design Team to facilitate the design of impactful development and humanitarian programmes around the world.

Are you able to envision opportunities that do not yet exist and translate strategy into compelling programme and project designs? Inspire others to pursue that vision and draft effective proposals to secure funding? Then this role may be for you!

The post holder will work closely with teams around the world to blend the best of Tearfund's capabilities with those of its partners to transform the lives of people in communities experiencing poverty, climate change and conflict. In addition to being an inspiring leader, the ideal candidate will:

• bring a deep understanding of development and/or humanitarian programming
• will have experience working with different types of funding streams
• adopt highly relational approaches to engage with culturally diverse teams

This is an exciting role with significant potential to shape the future of large-scale programming in countries around the world.

Tearfund is a Christian INGO which partners with local churches in more than 50 of the world's poorest countries. We tackle poverty and injustice through influencing, provision of grants to build up local partners, and through large-scale programming where necessary.

Contract type: This is a full time, fixed term, 2 year contract.

Location: This role can be based in any country where Tearfund is registered and able to employ staff, except in Kenya where the office capacity is at a maximum. Salary and terms and conditions will be dependent on location and working hours.

Hybrid Working: In the UK this role is eligible for hybrid working and you will be required to work from a designated Tearfund office and from your home by agreement with the line manager.

The recruitment process will include specific checks related to safeguarding. In addition, personal identification information will be submitted against a Watchlist database to check against criminal convictions as a counter-terror measure.

Tearfund is a faith based organisation and applicants must share our statement of faith.
