Job overview

In addition to its work connecting survivors in a global movement and supporting the work of national survivor networks, the Mukwege Foundation (MF) collaborates closely with its sister organisation in Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC): Panzi Foundation DRC, to roll out Panzi’s holistic One-Stop-Centre (OSC) model of care for survivors of sexual violence in other conflict-affected countries. This international roll-out includes 1) capacity building efforts and knowledge exchange, 2) financial and other support to multisectoral actors for the provision of holistic care and 3) survivor-centred and survivor-informed advocacy on national, regional and international levels.

The Programme Manager will be primarily responsible for supporting the implementation, monitoring and evaluation of different holistic-care projects across the globe, nurturing relationships with technical partners and supporting short-term experts and consultants who are deployed in support of MF programmes.

The Programme Manager will also assume the responsibility as the primary HC desk officer for one (1) country of implementation within the current HC portfolio. This will mean that they will be the main point of contact for that specific country programme team, for technical support and advice related to Holistic Care related programming. Furthermore, they will perform different duties on the global level, in coordination with the rest of the team, related to scoping and developing new projects and partnerships, in line with strategic priorities. In contexts where MF does not have an in-country presence, the Programme Manager may remotely manage projects and will directly support local partners.

The Programme Manager will work with the supervision and support of the Senior Programme Manager, HC. They will join the HC team in the Hague and will be supported by MF’s finance and administration team.
