GLOBAL DIRECTOR, MIGRATION AND DISPLACEMENT INITIATIVE (MDI)

The Opportunity
Save the Children International has an exciting opportunity for you to join our team as the–Global Director, Migration and Displacement Initiative (MDI)at any existing Save the Children International office location.

Role Purpose:
At the end of 2019, 79mn million people (>40% children) were displaced by conflict and violence, with many more millions displaced by climate change and other factors.
These numbers are increasing rapidly.
(Irregular) migration is one of the pivotal political issues of our time, influencing much of the development and donor discourse – and again is an issue that impacts upon millions of vulnerable children worldwide. In response to the increasing impact of displacement and migration crises upon children, Save the Children established its Migration and Displacement Initiative (MDI) at the end of 2016
The Migration and Displacement Initiative (MDI) is a small unit housed within Save the Children International, which seeks to leverage existing capacity and skills across the Save the Children family, to support the Movement to become a global leader on child focused Migration and Displacement. The MDI is expected to ensure a consistent and cutting edge approach across all of our international programming activities.
The MDI places children at the heart of global solutions to M&D and works to ensure that SC reaches more M&D affected children through effective, durable, and scalable solutions and that we are recognised as a global leader in child focused M&D programming.

MDI seeks to achieve this in three ways:
1. As a Centre of Excellence and catalyst unit to drive knowledge, programming and policy work
2. As an innovator in developing tools and solutions to improve the way we respond to displacement challenges
3. As a convener to bring public, private and social sector partners together to tackle the issue collaboratively

In order to be successful you will bring/have:
