Global Change Manager – Localisation Initiative at

5 months ago


Nairobi, Nairobi Area, Kenya Save the Children Full time
The Save the Children Fund, commonly known as Save the Children, is an international non-governmental organization that promotes children's rights, provides relief and helps support children in developing countries

Role Purpose:


In order to achieve our global breakthroughs for children by 2030, the Save the Children movement has committed to significantly changing the way we work – a core component of which is to shift power to local and national actors.

Our Localisation ambition – 'Local to Global for Impact' - is an ambitious, multi-year, transformational journey that will see us – and the wider sector - deliver more, better, and fairer impact through context-responsive, locally-designed, locally-led and locally–owned programs for children.


We will achieve this by addressing fundamental challenges in the way current aid is delivered to enable and facilitate local actors' own access to global resources for maximum impact – and we will overcome blockers within our own organisation that currently prevents this from happening.


The Localisation Initiative was originally formed to define the strategic approach to Localisation and the high level roadmap for its realisation.

We are now entering the next phase of the transformation – with the team accelerating the pace to meet the movement's Localisation ambition.

It consists of a small number of dedicated resources tasked with overcoming a number of blockers to Localisation that currently exist across the movement.


As the GCM for the Localisation initiative, you will be responsible for understanding the context and stakeholders, and for assessing the impact of the proposed options to move forwards in terms of our culture, people, processes, data and systems.

You will work closely with the wider initiative team to agree priorities, develop a robust change plan, and monitor progress against this plan.

You will also be accountable for the development and delivery of all required change interventions needed across the workstreams being delivered, as well as ensuring the relevant leadership alignment required to support subsequent phases of the transformation journey
