SAVE THE CHILDREN INTERNATIONAL

RECRUTE

PROJECT DIRECTOR

The incumbent will be based in Abidjan 35% and in Daloa 65% of his time.

The role

The project will increase the number of cocoa cooperatives demonstrating a reduction of child labor in the cocoa supply chain in Côte d’Ivoire. The project will link with the Government of Côte d’Ivoire’s efforts to improve accountability of cocoa cooperatives to monitor child labor in the cocoa supply chain and increase support to vulnerable cocoa households within cocoa cooperatives in the cocoa growing areas.

The project implementation is in Daloa. While some activities can be done remotely from Abidjan, it is expected the Project Director will be flexible and be present in Daloa when needed based on the project workplan.

The PD will be Save the Children’s primary point of contact with the Bureau of International Labor Affairs of the U.S. Department of Labor and all other relevant stakeholders, including the local partners. S/he will collaborate with relevant Ministries and agencies in Côte d’Ivoire and other critical partners to provide high-level support for effective capacity building at the local level and sustainability of the project interventions. The PD will ensure adherence to overall technical and programmatic quality in implementation, compliance with donor rules and regulations, and the timely submission of all deliverables. The PD will also be responsible for the overall direction and coordination of the project activities of all sub-recipient partners. 

The PD will oversee a team of experts and project staff, prepare reports and annual operating plans, align project initiatives with in-country priorities and ensure the project is compliant with the U.S. government and Save the Children’s regulations. The project will be designed to align closely with the current objectives of the Government of Côte d’Ivoire for combating child labor, so that activities are complementary and create sustainable solutions.
