Transformation
Plan International’s global strategy, 100 Million Reasons (2017-22) defines Plan International as a progressive international NGO committed to addressing fundamental changes in the countries in which we work, and globally, that advance children’s rights and gender equality. The strategy takes its name from our ambition to take action so that together we can work with 100 million girls to learn, lead, decide and thrive. The strategy is ambitious, results focussed and focussed on change. In view of this, Plan International offices are embarking on a structured transformation and change journey. This will commence in Plan International’s offices in Tanzania and Zambia in 2020.
Plan’s offices in Tanzania and Zambia have worked in partnership for several years, primarily in child protection programming with a focus on ending child marriage. Recognising the investment required in 2019-20 to develop a vision for the future programmes and advocacy work for both countries, that is ambitious and aligned with Plan International’s global strategy, and the transformation and change management work required, Plan Zambia and Plan Tanzania will work in a partnership for their respective country’s Transformation, including planning, design and execution. This will be led by both Country Directors with the support of the Country Transformation Manager. This position will be based in either Lusaka or Dar es Salaam, and be line managed by the Country Director of the host country with a matrix reporting line to the other Country Director.
The Purpose of this role
The Country Transformation Manager will work in partnership with the Country Directors of both countries, to lead the planning and design of the Transformation process for both countries (two separate processes), and subsequently to lead, coordinate and facilitate the execution of the plans.
DIMENSIONS OF THE ROLE
The Country Transformation Manager’s role requires working collaboratively with all staff, stakeholders and organisational structures in order to lead PIT and PIZ through the organizational transformation in pursuance of the 100 Million Reasons Global Strategy.

The role is expected to take a lead in designing the change strategies for both countries, assessing stakeholder impacts and organizational readiness, recommending and/or implementing appropriate communication, training, and behavioural change solutions, and measuring effectiveness to enhance organization, group, and individual performance. Throughout the process, strong support will be provided by Plan’s Global Hub’s Transformation Strategy Development Department, by on-site missions and remote support.
Outcomes of the transformation process are as follows :
- Country Aspiration and Goal Setting for both PIT and PIZ
- Detailed Country Strategy, based on, but not limited to, review of PIZs draft Country Strategy 2018 – 2022.

United Nations Considerations
According to article 101, paragraph 3, of the Charter of the United Nations, the paramount consideration in the employment of the staff is the necessity of securing the highest standards of efficiency, competence, and integrity. Candidates will not be considered for employment with the United Nations if they have committed violations of international human rights law, violations of international humanitarian law, sexual exploitation, sexual abuse, or sexual harassment, or if there are reasonable grounds to believe that they have been involved in the commission of any of these acts. The term “sexual exploitation” means any actual or attempted abuse of a position of vulnerability, differential power, or trust, for sexual purposes, including, but not limited to, profiting monetarily, socially or politically from the sexual exploitation of another. The term “sexual abuse” means the actual or threatened physical intrusion of a sexual nature, whether by force or under unequal or coercive conditions. The term “sexual harassment” means any unwelcome conduct of a sexual nature that might reasonably be expected or be perceived to cause offence or humiliation, when such conduct interferes with work, is made a condition of employment or creates an intimidating, hostile or offensive work environment, and when the gravity of the conduct warrants the termination of the perpetrator’s working relationship. Candidates who have committed crimes other than minor traffic offences may not be considered for employment.

The United Nations places no restrictions on the eligibility of men and women to participate in any capacity and under conditions of equality in its principal and subsidiary organs.
