Are you motivated by the desire to help shake things up and do things differently? Start Network is on a mission to disrupt the Humanitarian system and the Systems Innovation and Change team is at the heart of these ambitions for change.
Start Network aims for a locally-led humanitarian system, and the transition is already underway through the development of networks (known as ‘hubs’). Start Network hubs are collectives of local, national, and international organisations or humanitarian responders operating in the same country or region. Hubs come together through a vision of system change, to tackle the deep-rooted issues in humanitarian responses within their contexts. They are supported by the Global Start Network but ultimately, they control their resources and define their responses to crises affecting and threatening their communities.
A protocol was developed following the discussion in the DRC Hub and members workshops in June 2022, and written in collaboration with DRC Hub leaders and member representatives.
We are looking for a committed and collaborative individual, with previous experience of working in a membership focused role within a network or membership organisation.
We are looking for an experienced and committed individual to join us as a Start Fund Programme Officer, a critical role supporting the implementation of the global Start Fund.
The postholder will be partnering with the Start Network as part of SCUK Global Programmes division, working and influencing the relevant teams to support their strategic decision making and managing income/expenditure budgets across divisional areas of significant variability.
