Job summary

The Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office pursues our national interests and projects the UK’s role in the world. We promote the interests of British citizens, safeguard the UK’s security, defend our values, reduce poverty and tackle global challenges with our international partners. We employ more than 17,000 staff in 179 countries and territories, across our diplomatic and development offices worldwide, which consists of 282 officially designated Posts. Our UK-based staff work in King Charles Street, London, Abercrombie House in East Kilbride and in Milton Keynes.

We are looking for a highly motivated and enthusiastic Social Development Advisor to lead delivery of Humanitarian, Food Security and Resilience Department’s Inclusion and Gender Equality agenda. Drawing on your technical skills and knowledge, you will be responsible for developing and driving forward appropriate policy and programmatic initiatives, building networks, and providing analysis on key inclusion and equalities issues to regularly update the agenda. This work is closely related to areas of high Ministerial interest including supporting women and girls in crises and conflict situations in addition to protection from Gender-Based Violence in emergencies where the UK has historically played a leading role.

This role will focus on inclusion related to the specific and diverse needs people have in humanitarian crises and the barriers they face when trying to safely access appropriate humanitarian assistance. These needs, and the protection risks people may face (violence, coercion, deprivation), are shaped by social norms and historical forms of marginalisation (potentially based on gender, age, disability, sexual orientation and gender identity, location and ethnicity). These are often accentuated in times of crises and intersect.

An inclusive approach to humanitarian action necessitates actively seeking to understand who is at risk of being left behind to ensure they safely access the assistance they require, with dignity. This can only be achieved through the effective participation of those affected. The successful candidate will play a critical role in defining, developing and supporting implementation of concrete inclusion-focused deliverables to enable the department to meaningfully ‘walk the talk’ on inclusion in humanitarian action, meet public commitments and take strategic opportunities to advance this file.
