CARE is a leader in promoting a comprehensive approach to gender equality and empowerment of women and girls as key to its unshakable commitment to ending poverty. As such, CARE’s education priorities are embedded in its poverty reduction and social justice efforts. CARE focuses on the most marginalized and hard to reach, which in many contexts are adolescents, particularly girls, who have been left out of formal education. CARE’s work brings together communities, schools and government partners to create gender-transformative, innovative and sustainable solutions to ensure that marginalized children and adolescents, especially girls, are able to stay in school, succeed academically and transition to meaningful engagement in society.
As a member of CARE’s Education Team, the Senior Technical Advisor for Program Design and Resource Mobilization (PDRM) will play a key role in positioning CARE as a global leader in education and adolescent programming, contributing to CARE’s efforts to develop innovative designs for education and adolescent programming. The PDRM will be the primary technical proposal development expert on the team. S/he will leverage promising practices and core strategies that are cutting-edge, replicable, scalable, and documented with credible evidence to develop sound designs for education and adolescent empowerment approaches, including learnings from other evidence-based programs within CARE. S/he will engage extensively, internally and externally, around program design, proposal development and other aspects of resource mobilization.

Qualifications:
CARE is an international NGO with local staff and community partners in more than 90 countries. We create local solutions to poverty and inequality and we seek dignity for everyone every day and during times of crisis. These solutions have a broad range, from clean water to access to education; from microfinance to ensuring that everyone has nutritious food; from agriculture and climate change to disaster response. CARE puts women and girls at the center of everything we do because they have proven to be the best hope for creating lasting change in the world. Our staff live where they work, which makes us effective at understanding the challenges they face. We’ve been doing this for over 70 years, since World War II. It started with the world’s first CARE Package® of food for the post-war hungry in Europe. Our work today is as important as ever, we believe that poverty and inequality are historic injustices that we can end within a generation, for good. If you share our core beliefs: poverty is an injustice; poverty is solvable; and together, we have the power to end it, join us.
There are individuals who may use CARE’s name and trademark in emails and on websites in an attempt to solicit fees from interested job-seekers. Some examples of these fees are placement fees or immigration processing fees. CARE does not use recruiting or placement agencies that charge candidates an up-front fee of any kind. Occasionally, CARE does employ recruiting or placement agencies to help us identify candidates for specific employment within CARE. If you’re contacted by a legitimate recruiting or placement agency, there should be no charge to you.
