Humanitarian Safety & Security Specialist – Roster Recruitment
Humanitarian Safety & Security Specialist – Roster Recruitment at Plan International June 2024
Location: Global, Flexible
Company: Plan International
The Organisation
Plan
International is an independent development and humanitarian
organisation that advances children’s rights and equality for girls. We
believe in the power and potential of every child. But this is often
suppressed by poverty, violence, exclusion and discrimination. And it’s
girls who are most affected. Working together with children, young
people, our supporters and partners, we strive for a just world,
tackling the root causes of the challenges facing girls and all
vulnerable children.

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. We have been building powerful partnerships for children
for over 85 years, and are now active in more than 80 countries.

The Opportunity
We recognise that our staff and associates
may work in or travel to hostile and complex environments that present
unique safety and security risks, and we are proactive in identifying
and mitigating these risks. We understand that security management
should be an enabler rather than a barrier. Plan International is
committed to fulfilling its duty of care to our staff and providing a
safe and secure environment so that we can better fulfil our purpose and
objectives.

Plan International is looking for experienced
Safety and Security Specialists and Advisors who can be available on
short notice (within 72 hours) for contracts of varying duration in
various (often high-risk context) countries to gap fill, support scale
up and build capacity in inclusive safety and security management. The
pre-qualified candidates will be included on an external roster and will
receive on-call assignments, after receiving training on Plan
International’s safety procedures and tools. The assignments will take
place in countries where humanitarian operations are taking place and
will have a variable duration of up to six months.
