International Change Manager
Fixed term contract of up to 12 months
£50,000 to £60,000 per annum
London based with 60% - 75% world travel

Save the Children is the world’s leading independent organisation for children. Our vision is a world in which every child attains the right to survival, protection, development and participation. We work to inspire breakthroughs in the way the world treats children and to achieve immediate and lasting change in their lives.

We are in the process of creating an exciting and innovative new international programming division, with scalable and empowered Country and Regional Offices worldwide as a keystone of our ambitious growth strategy, enabling us to have an even greater impact for children. Once complete, the organisation will have a budget in excess of US$1 billion and over 14 ,000 staff. We’ve already completed 10 countries and there’s plenty more to go!

A dynamic rapid scale-up of such magnitude needs experienced hands-on change managers with a successful track record gained ideally in merger, acquisitions, outsourcing or similar major organisational re-structuring initiatives. Results driven, you will be a creative problem solver, strategic thinker and incisive analyst. You will have the credibility and powers of persuasion to influence issues and people at all levels with tact and diplomacy. A highly motivated self-starter, you will set yourself ambitious goals and own the responsibility for achieving them. Collaborative by nature, you will be prepared to travel extensively worldwide, probably spending 60% to 75% of your time abroad. Experience of working internationally and strong language skills, especially in French and Spanish, though not essential, would be advantageous.
