Johannesburg, South Africa UNFPA Full time

**The Position**:
Under the overall guidance of the Regional Director for UNFPA ESARO, the position will be under the direct supervision of the Regional Resource Mobilization and Partnerships Advisor with functional reporting to the Head of the Middle-Income Country Technical Hub (MIC-Hub). The position will strengthen traditional and non-traditional partnerships and donor portfolios for Middle-Income Countries (MICs) as the primary focus with support to the rest of the East and Southern Africa region (ESAR). The position will focus on Government donors, International Financial Institutions (IFI’s), UN Joint Programmes, South-South Cooperations, Financing for Development, including blended finance and digital fundraising, Private Sector engagement, and Portfolio Compliance Management, to mention a few.

**How you can make a difference**:
UNFPA is the lead UN agency for delivering a world where every pregnancy is wanted, every childbirth is safe and every young person's potential is fulfilled. UNFPA’s strategic plan (2022-2025), reaffirms the relevance of the current strategic direction of UNFPA and focuses on three transformative results: to end preventable maternal deaths; end unmet need for family planning; and end gender-based violence and harmful practices. These results capture our strategic commitments on accelerating progress towards realizing the ICPD and SDGs in the Decade of Action leading up to 2030. Our strategic plan calls upon UN Member States, organizations and individuals to “build forward better”, while addressing the negative impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic on women’s and girls’ access to sexual and reproductive health and reproductive rights, recover lost gains and realize our goals.

In a world where fundamental human rights are at risk, we need principled and ethical staff, who embody these international norms and standards, and who will defend them courageously and with full conviction.
