This aims to build on and give greater focus to existing activity within our markets, and central initiatives (e.g., our support for those who fled the war in Ukraine). The overarching objective is to ensure that our intervention, alongside selected partners, positively impacts as many lives as possible. There is a specific focus on ensuring we protect the most vulnerable in society, including children and those from disadvantaged backgrounds. It is important that activity involves our employees and retailers. To deliver, you will need to work collaboratively with a range of internal and external stakeholders. This will be done through building productive relationships with NGO partners and multi-lateral organizations, as well as colleagues in Global Sustainability, People Experience, the wider Communications team and the regions. You will use your own knowledge as well as these networks to enable us to make a measurable difference in addressing major social challenges, which could include violation of children's rights, inequality of opportunity and road safety.
You will be responsible for: Establishing strong governance structures, including to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of the Fund and assess new project proposals and potential partners.

Given your experience and strong understanding of social development issues and challenges, you will be able to provide clear guidance centrally and to the regions on best practise to maximise impact, as well as advise on appropriate social advocacy opportunities. You will identify new potential projects and partners based on industry best practices, as well as propose and deliver improvements to the management, governance and focus of the Fund to ensure its ongoing development. Moreover, you will be able to continually monitor and improve the evaluation of our social impact work, helping develop solid internal competence in this area. Through your enthusiasm and expertise, you will inspire colleagues across the company to identify opportunities where they and their teams can make a difference within the communities in which they operate.
