The Organisation
Plan International is an independent development and humanitarian organisation that advances children’s rights and equality for girls. We believe in the power and potential of every child but know this is often suppressed by poverty, violence, exclusion and discrimination. And it is girls who are most affected.
Working together with children, young people, supporters and partners, we strive for a just world, tackling the root causes of the challenges girls and vulnerable children face. We support children’s rights from birth until they reach adulthood and we enable children to prepare for and respond to crises and adversity. We drive changes in practice and policy at local, national and global levels using our reach, experience and knowledge.
For over 85 years, we have rallied other determined optimists to transform the lives of all children in more than 80 countries.
We won’t stop until we are all equal.
Role Purpose
The Project Coordinator will be responsible on leading day-to-day coordination and implementation of project activities in line with the technical proposal and detailed work plan, while ensuring timely delivery of all outputs under Child protection and livelihoods outcomes, in coordination with the donor and local partner. The project coordinator will monitor progress against the logical framework, ensuring alignment with the donor’s programmatic and reporting requirements.
Dimensions of the Role
The Project Coordinator is in charge of the preparation of, and overseeing the implementation of all project components, in close coordination with partners and field teams. The Coordinator will ensure the effective planning, implementation, and monitoring of all project components; particularly child protection, livelihoods, and cash-based interventions. The role will also serve as a key liaison between Plan International Lebanon, the implementing partner, and external stakeholders including the donor, ensuring that activities are delivered in line with project objectives, donor requirements, and relevant protection and livelihoods standards. The Project Coordinator will play a central role in facilitating joint planning, safeguarding quality, managing risk, and ensuring strong local coordination to contribute to the reduction of the worst forms of child labour in agriculture.
The coordinator will work closely with other internal support functions, including M&E, Operations, Finance, Grants, etc. Moreover, this position requires very strong reporting and financial management skills (re-phasing, re-alignment), where the coordinator will be managing and monitoring the spending of the project in a fast-paced environment, with close monthly financial reports, and close coordination with Plan’s and partners’ finance and grants teams.
