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.
