Are you capable of providing exceptional programmatic and strategic guidance for the scaling up and development of our humanitarian health programme in the occupied Palestinian territories?

UK-Med is a frontline medical aid charity. Born of the NHS, we’ve been working for over 30 years towards a world where everyone has the healthcare they need when crises or disasters hit.

We are looking for a Programme Representative to lead the strategic development of UK-Med’s programme in the occupied Palestinian territories (expected to be 80% focused on Gaza and 20% on the West Bank following registration of UK-Med). The incumbent will be responsible for strategy and business development, as well as supporting monitoring, evaluation, accountability, and learning activities and ensuring donor compliance across the programme, in line with UK Med’s processes and partner guidelines.

You will play a pivotal part in collaboratively developing and updating the country strategy, as well as supporting its implementation, review, and monitoring. Your responsibility extends to forging robust strategic partnerships, crucial for ensuring comprehensive, integrated, high-quality and sustainable programmes. This involves nurturing relationships with ministries, both local and international organisations, and donors. You will be instrumental in initiating innovative partnerships and enhancing fundraising capabilities.

You will have significant experience working with humanitarian organisations, ideally within emergency health programming. You will be highly skilled at external representation and expected to position UK-Med optimally with external stakeholders including donors, UN and NGO agencies. You will be a self-tarter, accustomed to building networks, establishing contacts and able to hit the ground running, with a proven track record in networking and forging relationships in challenging environments.

We offer a competitive salary and benefits along with a friendly working environment and the opportunity to make a real difference.
