<p>Save the Children International has an exciting opportunity for a<b>Country Director </b>to join our Country Office in <b>Iraq</b>. </p><br><ul> <li><b>Job Title:</b> Country Director, Iraq</li> <li><b>Reports To:</b> Regional Director, MENAEE</li> <li><b>Work Pattern:</b> On-site </li> <li><b>Location:</b> Erbil, Iraq</li> <li><b>Contract Length:</b> Permanent</li> <li><b>Grade: </b> Executive</li> <li><b>Language Requirements: </b> English essential, Arabic desirable</li> <li><b>People Management:</b> manager of multiple teams; 6 SMT direct reports</li> <li><b>Budget Responsibility:</b> $11.7 million </li> <li><b>Remit: </b> Country Office, National</li></ul><p><b>Team Purpose</b> </p><br><p>Save the Children currently operates a significant portfolio of programmes across 14 countries in the Middle East, North Africa, and Eastern Europe region. A large portion of these programmes consist of responses to large humanitarian emergencies (Yemen, Ukraine, Türkiye, OPT and Syria). We also work in countries facing other humanitarian and development challenges (Lebanon, Iraq, Kosovo and others). </p><br><p>Save the Children’s Iraq Country Office continues to operate in a complex environment shaped by a fragile recovery from years of conflict, ongoing humanitarian needs, and the fragile security situation in the region. Iraq is navigating a complex transition from a humanitarian context toward a humanitarian-development-peace (HDP) Nexus approach. While some progress has been made in stabilization and recovery, humanitarian needs remain acute. An estimated 1.1 million internally displaced persons (IDPs) remain in protracted displacement, children and families in camp settings, refugee returnees, and those in underserved rural and peri-urban areas continue to require urgent support across multiple sectors, including education, protection, health, WASH, and livelihoods. In recent years, Iraq has contended with the aftermath of conflict with ISIS, mass displacement, rising poverty, a fragile economy, and increasingly complex protection risks for children. These challenges are compounded by a tightening global funding environment, which is placing increasing pressure on the Country Office abilities to reach the most vulnerable children and families across the country. </p><br><p>Save the Children has been active in Iraq since 1991, delivering humanitarian, recovery, and development programs in Federal Iraq (FI) and the Kurdistan Region of Iraq (KRI) with sectors of intervention focusing on Education, Child Protection, Climate Resilience and Equality & Social Inclusion. SC prioritizes marginalized groups, including children with disabilities, those affected by armed conflict, Syrian refugees, and internally displaced persons (IDPs), working across 12 governorates: Erbil, Sulaymaniyah, Dohuk, Diyala, Kirkuk, Baghdad, Salah Al-Din, Anbar, Misan, Anbar and Ninewa. The Iraq CO has a current portfolio of USD 11.7 million with a workforce of approximately 54 staff, where a priority is put on working with partners across all areas of intervention. </p><br><p><b>Role Purpose</b></p><br><p>The <b>Country Director, Iraq</b> will lead Save the Children’s programmes in Iraq based out of Erbil, with frequent travel to Baghdad, reporting to the Middle East North Africa, and Eastern Europe Regional Director.

The Country Director is accountable for appropriate fiscal management of the Iraq Country Office and ensuring strong management of risks, including key legal and regulatory risks. </p><br><p>The Iraq Country Director is to lead the development and delivery of the country strategy to bring about lasting positive change to the lives of children and their families who do not enjoy full access to their rights. Iraq’s country strategy focuses on climate resilience, stronger child protection systems, emergency preparedness, equitable education access, and combating exploitation.

To review the full Terms of Reference (TOR), please follow link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1mveYtDPIgUBcruz4jiHgjoG1JQfjs01Q/view?usp=drive_link Organisational and Country Context The United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) is the world s largest humanitarian organisation, dedicated to saving lives in emergencies and promoting sustainable recovery for populations affected by conflict, disasters, and climate change. In Iraq, WFP supports the development and strengthening of the social protection system by partnering with the government to advance skills development, food security, social assistance, social insurance, and the resilience of vulnerable populations. For further details, visit our webpages at wfp.org/countries/Iraq and ar.wfp.org/countries/Iraq. WFP has adopted a robust and proactive approach to social protection, as outlined in its 2021 Corporate Strategy for Support to Social Protection . This approach is a key pillar of WFP's 'changing lives' agenda, prominently featured in the Strategic Plan for 2021. Social protection, as a rapidly expanding priority area, is now central to WFP s work across all regions and in more than 98 countries , including Iraq, underscoring its critical importance at both national and global levels. In 2023, WFP supported nationally led social protection systems and programmes in 98 countries across all operational regions, up from 88 in 2022. This growth reflects WFP's commitment to strengthening social protection as a core pillar of its global strategy to achieve Zero Hunger under Sustainable Development Goal 2 (SDG2). Iraq has an extensive social protection system, with social expenditure increasing from 23.7% of the Government of Iraq's spending in 2019 to 26.9% in 2023. The system is anchored by the Public Distribution System (PDS), one of the world's largest food assistance programmes, which reaches approximately 96% of the Iraqi population one of the highest coverage rates globally. In addition, the Social Safety Net (SSN) and the Persons with Disabilities Programme (PwD) provide income and service support to some of the most vulnerable groups. However, fiscal space remains constrained. The Federal Government of Iraq and the Kurdistan Region of Iraq (KRI) have committed to undertaking comprehensive reforms of their social protection system to support inclusion and equity, foster capacity-driven empowerment, bolster economic opportunity and security, and ensure sustainability and adaptability. To this end, they have established a partnership with the World Food Programme (WFP), the International Labour Organisation (ILO) and the United Nations Children s Fund (UNICEF), under the European Union supported UN Joint Programme "Leveraging Effective Response and Accelerating Reform for Social Protection in Iraq." The Joint Programme is structured around broad outcome areas aimed at contributing to the reduction of poverty and vulnerability in Iraq through an inclusive, shock-responsive, child-, gender-, and disability-sensitive social protection system. These overarching outcomes are operationalised through a set of activities led and implemented by each participating agency according to its areas of expertise, with the ultimate objective of achieving the Programme s shared goals. As part of this partnership, WFP provides technical and operational advisory to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of Iraq s social protection policies and programmes. Its services cover key areas including food security and nutrition, social inclusion, shock- responsive and adaptive social protection, school feeding, economic empowerment pathways for social safety net beneficiaries, and digitalisation. Through these efforts, WFP supports the development and operationalisation of major reforms aimed at strengthening the national social protection system, including Iraq s first single registry, school meals policy, and national social protection system, as well as the modelling and piloting of economic empowerment pathways. Purpose of the Assignment As part of its responsibilities, WFP leads the Knowledge and Learning Management (KLM) activities of the overall Joint Programme, focusing on capturing overarching trends, lessons learned, and programme contributions. In this context, the JP s KLM function supports the generation, internalisation, analysis, and dissemination of knowledge on social protection. This includes both capturing and organising knowledge internally, as well as sharing evidence, insights, and expertise externally to strengthen operational effectiveness and advance strategic objectives. Through this process, continuous internal and external learning is generated, fostering engagement, institutional improvement, and advocacy for social protection system reform.
