As Humanitarian Program Specialist, you will lead Plan International Sweden's humanitarian programming with a dual focus on strategic donor engagement and internal coordination. You will:
- Represent Plan International in humanitarian networks and forums in Sweden, and manage strategic relationships with key institutional donors, such as Sida, DG ECHO, and UN agencies, when relevant.
- Lead resource mobilization efforts for Plan International's humanitarian responses and ensure high quality assurance of humanitarian grants.
- Promote and support locally-led humanitarian action by strengthening the leadership and participation of local actors in Plan International Sweden-supported responses.
- Provide thematic expertise in areas such as Child Protection in Emergencies or Education in Emergencies.
- Act as team lead for the humanitarian team, guiding and prioritizing the team's work and building internal capacity.
Who You AreWe are looking for someone with:
- An advanced degree in humanitarian action, social science, political science, gender, law or a related field.
- Solid experience in humanitarian response programming, ideally including work in humanitarian crises.
- Demonstrated success in mobilizing resources to support emergency response efforts.
- Demonstrated experience managing donor accounts and relationships (e.g., Sida, DG ECHO, and UN agencies).
- Strong team leadership or supervisory experience, with the ability to delegate, prioritize, and support colleagues.
- Experience with proposal development, grant management and donor compliance.
- Experience working internationally and collaborating with Country Offices or local partners.
- Excellent communication skills in both Swedish and English (spoken and written). French or Spanish is an asset.
- Experience in Child Protection in Emergencies (CPIE) and/or Education in Emergencies is a merit.
- Strong public speaking and representation skills is a merit.
You are someone who works independently and takes initiative, while being comfortable in a fast-paced and changing environment. You are structured and organized, with strong planning and follow-up skills. Collaboration comes naturally to you, and you build trust easily across teams, cultures, and sectors. You bring a holistic perspective to your work, with the ability to connect strategy, operations, and people. As a leader, you are confident, supportive, and capable of guiding others with clarity and empathy. You also have the presence and professionalism to represent the organization in external forums and high-level meetings.
