Advisor: Programmes Safeguarding (FTC 12 months) At Frontline AIDS

Our programmes work with the most marginalised groups in over 40 countries. This role will work across our programme delivery function to ensure we implement our programmes in a way that protects, secures and promotes the safety, rights and wellbeing of those groups. You will work with expertise inside and outside the organisation to develop and enhance practical tools to guide and support colleagues and implementing partners to work in a safe and secure way. The role will be focussed on safeguarding our programme delivery. The post holder will be a key member of both the Safeguarding Group and the Programme Performance teams.

Who we are

We’ve been on the frontline of the world’s response to HIV and AIDS for 25 years, working with marginalised people who are denied HIV prevention and treatment simply because of who they are and where they live.

Set up in 1993 to work with community groups in the countries most affected by the global AIDS epidemic, we’ve continually adapted our approach, looking for innovative ways to break down the barriers that marginalise people living with, or at risk of acquiring, HIV. All with one goal in mind – a future free from AIDS for everyone, everywhere.

Everything we do is rooted in our two key beliefs:

• That the lives of all human beings are of equal value.
• That everyone has the right to access the HIV information and services they need for a healthy life.

Today, we work with communities in more than 40 countries, taking local, national and global action on HIV, health and human rights.

As a global partnership that is open to everyone, we can only do what we do – and achieve what we want to achieve – by working with partners from grassroots community groups to national governments. Our partners drive change where it matters, shaking up the status quo and making a noise on issues the world often chooses to ignore.

Are you the Frontliner we’re looking for?

You are a committed team member with a clear focus on team objectives, as well as your own. You will promote best practice within your field of expertise and challenge ways of working to ensure the highest quality and levels of efficiency. Your actions will be aligned with Frontline AIDS vision and you will inspire the same behaviour in your peers. You are comfortable working in a matrix management environment.

The role will currently be based at home. As lockdown eases we would anticipate that you would need to be able to attend key meetings and spend time working alongside your team as appropriate in our offices either in Hove (East Sussex, UK) or in Cape Town (South Africa).
