About Save the Children:

Save the Children’s origins lie in emergency response, and this has remained central to our work ever since. Our approach integrates our emergency and development work, through the medium of our country programmes. With the increasing frequency and severity of emergencies world-wide the organisation is increasing its capacity to support programmes in both sudden onset and chronic emergency situations. Our Emergency Response Personnel (ERP) play a key part with Save the Children’s humanitarian strategy. Members of the ERP scheme are active members of Save the Children’s UK’s humanitarian department, and contribute to organisational learning and help build organisation capacity to respond effectively to emergencies world-wide. Our Emergency Response Personnel are usually deployed for medium-term assignments for:

  • An emergency response where Save the Children is scaling up and we need immediate emergency expertise.
  • Surge capacity to a country programme by either filling a vacant position and/or adding further skills and experience to country programmes.

Capacity building of individuals and/or country programmes to ensure that programmes are being run effectively.

About the Role:

An ERP Senior Health Adviser will generally be deployed to the field as the lead health adviser in a medium or large-scale complex emergency. On occasion they may also be asked to gap fill a senior health advisory role in a chronic humanitarian country programme or carry out short-term assessment, programme design, capacity analysis or monitoring & evaluation activities. The ERP Senior Health Adviser will be expected, with limited support, to lead on multi-sectoral / health assessments, programme design and master budgeting, coordination, and support fundraising, recruitment and procurement in large complex emergencies. The ERP Senior Health Adviser will also be expected to play a leadership role within a response team, through 360o support to colleagues and work to ensure that broader sector coordination mechanisms are functioning effectively. In most circumstances, the post holder will be expected to mentor and/or capacity build both international and national staff colleagues. The ERP Senior Health Adviser will also be expected to play a role in global level health working groups, working closely with HQ advisers on organisational strategy, capacity building, policy & advocacy initiatives, including covering the HQ adviser role when required.
