The Opportunity
As the Global Advocacy Manager you will support the Director of Policy, Advocacy, Campaigns & Engagement (PACE) in the Strategy & Engagement Department of Global Hub to manage the implementation of the newly refreshed Global Advocacy Strategy 2022-27, known as the GLAS. The refreshed GLAS was launched in September 2022 to align with Plan International’s new Global Strategy All Girls Standing Strong Creating Global Change and informs the organisation’s advocacy work over the next five years (2022-2027). It provides a shared strategic framework that connects advocacy efforts across Plan International offices and supports choices and priority-setting at each level of the organisation. It puts girls’ and young women’s agency, leadership and organisation at the heart of our advocacy and reflects significant contextual shifts (COVID-19 pandemic, escalating humanitarian and climate crises) and our commitment to principles of human rights, social justice, anti-racism, decolonization, localisation, inclusion and intersectionality.
In this role you will support the implementation of the GLAS across the Plan International Federation, facilitating effective linkages across thematic agendas and offices, and will support, coordinate, and manage integrated local-to-global advocacy plans that contribute to the global-level 2022-2024 influencing priorities (set out in the Global Influencing Ambition). You will support the piloting and implementation of a monitoring framework currently being developed to track progress against the GLAS Goals and will develop best practice for key approaches to guide GLAS implementation. You will also be responsible for coordinating and leading on the new global policy agendas that underpin the successful implementation of the GLAS.
