How can you make a difference?


This post is responsible for maximizing results from private sector fundraising - and broader engagement with the private sector - in a designated set of Country Offices (COs), in line with UNICEF's global private sector IMPACT plan.

The post holder will work with specified COs in developing the right private sector strategies and portfolio for their country conditions.

Depending on the country, this will encompass all or some of the private sector audiences - individuals, key influencers, and business.

The incumbent will be responsible for ensuring that global best practice is effectively implemented in the specified COs.

The post is within the LAC Regional Office as part of the PFP Regional Support Centre.

It reports to the Regional Adviser, Private Fundraising and Partnership, with close technical liaison with the Private Fundraising and Partnership (PFP) Division.


Summary of key functions/accountabilities:

  • Acts as focal point for the strategic development of private sector fundraising (PSFR) and broader engagement with the private sector for a designated group of COs. Advises on the optimal strategic portfolio for these countries including choice of audiences, outcomes, strategies, strategies and channels to maximize opportunities.
  • Guides and supports the COs to develop and keep updated Private Sector Plans (PSPs) (and annual budgets) aligned with the global private sector IMPACT Plan, adapted to the country context, to maximize opportunities for growth in income and other results. Works with PFP specialists to ensure that appropriate support is provided to the designated COs.
  • Drives the maximization of investment in fundraising to optimise income growth — both from retention of fundraising income (under the CO budget), and from PFP investment funds. Advises on the allocation of PFP investment funds to the COs and the preparation of investment proposals, and monitors implementation and reporting.
  • Ensure adequate staffing (structures and capacities), in the designated COs, to optimize results from private fundraising and engagement, including coordination of (private sector) skills development.
  • Identifies and leads efforts to tackle major internal barriers to effective PSFR and private sector engagement, working alongside PFP specialists, and program, operations and communications colleagues.
  • Monitors and evaluates the PSFR performance of the COs identifying strengths and areas for improvement. This includes detailed analysis of annual PSFR results by channel, income type and comparison to long term targets. Assures the COs have in place robust monitoring, analysis and reporting, and that they comply with PFP's reporting requirements.
  • Assures the necessary market knowledge (e.g. donor performance, brand, market trends) to inform decisionmaking.
  • Ensure that the designated COs have in place adequate procedures for systematically managing and mitigating risks inherent in private sector fundraising and partnerships, as part of the UNICEF Enterprise Risk Management approach. Assure compliance with PFP's due diligence policy and processes for private sector partnerships.
  • Contributes to the overall work of the Regional Support Centre to maximise private sector results in the region.
