Job Description

Vacancy Advert

SAVE THE CHILDREN INTERNACIONAL (SCI), a non-profit humanitarian organization with focus on child well-being, is recruiting candidates for the position mentioned below:

  1. Chief of Party – FFP (Maputo)

Save the Children is seeking Chief of Party (COP) candidates for the anticipated USDA Title II Food for Peace (FFP) Non-Emergency Program. The non-emergency Title II Food for Peace program will enhance and complement existing international emergency food assistance programs in recipient countries by targeting resources to increase food security, nutrition, and overall resilience. The multi-year Food for Peace Non-Emergency Programming will target people and places that experience recurrent food crises with a Graduation through Agriculture-led Development Approach and by utilizing U.S. agricultural commodities. This approach combines the Graduation model with targeted Market Systems Strengthening focused on agricultural value chains to build resilience, improve food security, and reduce dependence on emergency food assistance.

The COP will be responsible for the overall management and representation of the activity and will be ultimately accountable for the delivery of desired program results, an effective adaptive management approach, relationships with a range of stakeholders, and management of the program team and consortium.

This position will be based in the country of implementation for the duration of the anticipated two-to-five-year period of performance. Hiring is contingent upon USDA approval of the candidate and award of the project to Save the Children.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in a relevant field (e.g., development studies, international relations, agriculture, economics, public health, business administration).
  • Master’s preferred.

Experience and Skills

Essential

  • Minimum of 10 years of progressively increasing management responsibility in agriculture, market systems development, food security, livelihoods, graduation programming or related field is required.
  • Proven senior-level experience designing, managing and implementing large projects of a similar size, scope and complexity in developing countries, ideally in conflict-affected and non-permissive environments.
  • Demonstrated experience leading consortia, building and maintaining partnerships, including with government institutions, donors, local organizations, private-sector actors and other key stakeholders.
  • Demonstrated experience recruiting, developing, and managing staff, as well as experience managing programmatic and financial reporting.
  • Demonstrated experience with commodity management.
  • Professional proficiency in spoken and written English and Portuguese.
  • Excellent communication, representation, negotiation and stakeholder-management skills.
  • Demonstrated commitment to fostering and maintaining an environment of belonging.

Interested candidates must submit the CV and motivation letter in English or Portuguese by 23rd November 2026, through the following link: https://hcri.fa.em2.oraclecloud.com:443/hcmUI/CandidateExperience/en/job/18123?utm_medium=jobboard

Esta abordagem combina o modelo de Graduação (Graduation Model) com o reforço direcionado dos Sistemas de Mercado (Market Systems Strengthening), focado nas cadeias de valor agrícolas, para fortalecer a resiliência das comunidades, melhorar a segurança alimentar e reduzir a dependência da assistência alimentar de emergência. O Chief of Party (COP) será responsável pela gestão geral e representação do programa, sendo, em última instância, responsável pela entrega dos resultados esperados, pela implementação de uma abordagem eficaz de gestão adaptativa, pela manutenção de relações com uma ampla gama de partes interessadas e pela gestão da equipa do programa e do consórcio.
