  • To achieve our global breakthroughs for children by 2030, Save the Children has committed to significantly changing the way we work. A core component of this change is shifting power to local and national actors. Our Localisation ambition - ‘Local to Global for Impact’ - is an ambitious, multi-year, transformational journey that will see us (and the wider sector) deliver more, better, and fairer impact through context-responsive, locally-designed, locally-led and locally-owned programmes for children. We will achieve this by addressing fundamental challenges in the way current aid is delivered to enable and facilitate local actors’ own access to global resources for maximum impact - and we will overcome blockers within our own organisation that currently prevent this from happening.
  • Save the Children’s Localisation Initiative team was formed to define our strategic approach to Localisation, and to develop the high-level roadmap for its realisation. We are now entering the next phase of this transformation - with the team being given a mandate to accelerate the pace at which we will be able to meet our localisation ambitions. The team consists of a small number of dedicated resources tasked with overcoming several blockers to achieving our ambitions, working across Save the Children’s global movement.
  • The Localisation Task Team is a group of Subject Matter Experts on Localisation that sit across the membership and wider movement and are responsible for sharing best practice, knowledge development and exchange, including thought leadership & technical expertise across the 7 dimensions of localisation.
  • To further support these collective efforts and drive forward the Localisation agenda, Save the Children is seeking a qualified Knowledge Manager to support and ensure the systematic documentation and dissemination of knowledge generated through these efforts by supporting us to operationalize our new Global Localisation KM Plan. The Global Localisation KM Plan is centered on a belief that knowledge is power, and that we and the local actors we work alongside need access to the evidence, knowledge, and learnings derived from localised approaches to effectively shift power and produce lasting results for children. By implementing this plan, the Knowledge Manager will A) improve Save the Children’s capability to learn from, evidence and facilitate locally-led development and humanitarian action and B) increase the visibility of the locally-led technical capacities and knowledge of both Save the Children and local actors themselves C) Improve access to evidence and learning for national and local actors.
  • A large part of realizing our KM plan’s goals means we are looking for a highly-motivated KM expert to further develop and oversee our new Localisation Community of Practice (COP). The Knowledge Manager will support this by strengthening relationships with existing members and growing new relationships with professionals across the Save the Children Movement, and eventually, extend membership to local and national actors to become a vibrant, collaborative network worldwide.
  • The Manager’s role in building knowledge and trust amongst our members and with local partners will be instrumental to furthering our localisation approaches and increasing thought leadership in this cross-cutting area.
