Partnerships Consultant, 6 months, PPR Central Europe, PPR, O/P Berlin, UNICEF, Germany, Remote #596374 in Germany
The purpose of this time-bound consultancy is to provide deliverable-based capacity to the Public Partnerships & Resource Mobilization Division (PPR) Central Europe team to strengthen Germany-facing partnership engagement, visibility and resource-mobilization opportunities in support of the flagship Sahel Resilience Programme (SRP), supporting structured engagement with the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ), the World Food Programme (WFP), the Hamburg Sustainability Conference (HSC) and the German National Committee for UNICEF; translating SRP results and priorities into partner-facing materials and events and supporting youth participation and visibility around Hamburg Sustainability Conference 2027 (HSC27). While the West and Central Africa Regional Office (WCARO)/SRP provides the program substance, technical direction and regional coordination, the Berlin/PPR team is best placed to manage this assignment because the outputs are primarily partnership, contribution-management, advocacy, communications and stakeholder-engagement deliverables for German audiences and institutions. Locating the consultancy within PPR ensures close alignment with the Central Europe Section’s partnership priorities and donor engagement. While WCARO/SRP remains responsible for program content and strategic direction, PPR Berlin provides the Germany-facing partnership interface needed to convert program results into sustained political, visibility, and resource-mobilization opportunities. This consultancy addresses temporary but critical capacity gap at the point where program priorities meet donor engagement. The deliverables will improve information flow between WCARO/SRP and German partners, strengthen UNICEF’s ability to position the SRP in current Sahel policy discussions in Germany, and support a more coherent approach to sustaining Germany’s partnership with UNICEF in the Sahel.
