The Opportunity
As our Global Inclusion Specialist, you will play a critical role in ensuring inclusion and intersectionality are embedded across our programmes, influencing work, policies and partnerships, helping us achieve our ambition of reaching 200 million girls over the next five years.
 
Working within the Gender Transformative Policy and Practice (GTPP) Team, you will collaborate with colleagues across our Global Hub, Regional Hubs, Country Offices and National Organisations to strengthen inclusive, gender-transformative approaches and champion the voices and rights of those most often excluded.
 
This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced inclusion specialist who is passionate about advancing girls' rights, gender equality and social justice on a global scale. We are looking for someone who believes that lasting change happens when inclusion and intersectionality are embedded at the heart of programmes, policies and partnerships, and who is motivated by the opportunity to influence both practice and organisational culture.

The Role
As Global Inclusion Specialist, you will support the implementation of Plan International's Global Gender Equality and Inclusion Policy and Gender Transformative Approach, helping to ensure inclusion and intersectionality are consistently embedded across our programme and influencing work.
You will work closely with technical specialists, programme teams, networks and partners across the Federation, providing expert advice, fostering learning and collaboration, and strengthening inclusive approaches that reinforce our commitment to girls' rights and gender equality.
The role will also support and coordinate key global networks focused on gender equality, disability inclusion, LGBTQIA+ inclusion and intersectionality, ensuring shared learning, stronger collaboration and greater impact across the organisation.

About You
  • Significant experience advancing inclusion, intersectionality, diversity, equity and social justice within international development, humanitarian or related sectors.
  • Strong expertise in disability inclusion, LGBTQIA+ inclusion, anti-racism and gender-transformative approaches.
  • Knowledge of international frameworks relating to child rights, girls' rights, gender equality and inclusion.
  • Understanding of the drivers of social change, power, inequality and exclusion.
  • Experience conducting gender, social exclusion and intersectional analysis and applying findings to programme design, implementation and influencing strategies.
  • Strong experience working with civil society organisations, social movements, representative groups and community-led organisations.
  • Experience building and managing partnerships that strengthen inclusion and amplify underrepresented voices.
  • Excellent facilitation, training and capacity-building skills, with the ability to create engaging learning experiences.
  • Strong relationship-building, networking and stakeholder management skills in diverse, cross-cultural environments.
  • Ability to translate complex technical concepts into clear, practical and accessible guidance for a range of audiences.
  • Excellent research, analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to identify opportunities and drive meaningful change.
  • Proven ability to influence, collaborate and build consensus with colleagues and partners at all levels of an organisation.
  • Outstanding written and verbal communication skills, with the confidence to represent organisational priorities internally and externally.
