Plan
International is an independent development and humanitarian

suppressed by poverty, violence, exclusion and discrimination. And it
is girls who are most affected.

Working together with children,
young people, supporters and partners, we strive for a just world,
tackling the root causes of the challenges girls and vulnerable children
face. We support children’s rights from birth until they reach
adulthood and we enable children to prepare for and respond to crises
and adversity. We drive changes in practice and policy at local,
national and global levels using our reach, experience and knowledge.

For over 85 years, we have rallied other determined optimists to transform the lives of all children in more than 80 countries.

across our operations in over 80 countries, supporting our ambition to
improve the lives of 200 million girls by 2030.

You will oversee
IT Security for key enterprise systems, including ERP, HRIS, data
analytics, and systems that manage sensitive information for over one
million children. Your responsibilities will include managing a budget
of around €1 million, coordinating with third-party security partners,
and collaborating closely with IT teams globally.
