Plan International UK is a global children's charity striving for an equal world. One where every child can reach their full potential and every girl can choose her own future.


We bring people together to protect children's rights and keep girls safe, in school and in control of their bodies – even when disaster strikes.

And we won't stop until we are all equal.


Are you ready to take a leading role in growing Plan International UK's Institutional donor engagement and Business Development? Are you driven to achieve results and work collaboratively with colleagues to do so? Do you have experience of working with institutional donors such as FCDO, World Bank and European commission or any other similar donors? This is an exciting time to join as increasing and diversifying institutional income sits centrally to our strategy.


We are looking for a Strategic Business development lead with exceptional programme development, networking and leadership skills to oversee the development and supervision of Plan International UK's longer term institutional portfolio in Development Programme Unit.

In this role, you will lead a team of business development managers and business finance specialist and work with technical leads to successfully develop innovative commercial tenders and gender transformative proposals.


You will be a successful manager and strategic leader of multi-lingual teams and portfolios, setting a strong role model example with proven ability to create cohesive professional relationships with internal and external stakeholders.

You will have strong verbal and written communications skills and exceptional problem-solving.

You will be skilled at using your formal and informal networks to raise our profile, to get things done and influence others.

We, therefore, apply rigorous recruitment and selection processes to ensure that only those who are suitable are recruited to work for us.

Accordingly, appointment to all our roles is subject to a range of vetting checks and for this role this will include a Basic Disclosure and Barring (DBS) check.
