Young people share a restless determination to address the problems that affect them the most. That’s where we come in. At Restless Development, we’re proud to be the banner carrier for youth-led development, demonstrating from the grassroots to the global policy levels that young people can and must play a lead role in development. As a result, Restless Development is repeatedly cited as a model of best practice in youth-led development by the World Bank, the UK Department for International Development (DFID), UNICEF, UNAIDS and others.
The People & Performance unit is one arm of the Head Office support units, playing a central role in supporting the entire global agency to nurture its most valuable asset – its young, dedicated and talented staff. Balancing a combination of day-to-day and project-based work, this varied role offers a broad generalist remit, a high level of senior exposure, and the opportunity to be a true business partner to some of our Country Programmes and Head Office units, whilst leading the operations of the growing unit.
The People & Performance unit is one of the agency’s youngest and smallest units (consisting of 4 staff). As such, you will be joining at a time when there is still vast opportunity to influence and shape the People agenda – particularly when partnering with Country Programmes to translate the global 2-year People & Performance strategy into a tailored, local People plan and supporting them to implement it in the years to come.
