Saferworld is seeking a Learning Advisor on a 12-month fixed-term contract (maternity cover), full-time at 37.5 hours per week (part-time will be considered), starting as soon as possible. The post can be based in London, Nairobi, Kampala or Bishkek, and other locations will be considered in countries where Saferworld has a presence. Salary: Grade F - UK salary £43,800; the national salary structure of the applicant's country of location will apply.
The Learning Advisor leads Saferworld's efforts to strengthen organisational learning, adaptive programming and decision-making, reflection processes, and knowledge use across programmes (geographic and thematic), policy, advocacy, and advisory work, in the countries where Saferworld works and globally. The role supports teams and partners to generate, capture, analyse and apply learning from practice and evidence to improve approaches to locally led peacebuilding responses, programme and organisational effectiveness, and influencing strategies.
Working closely with MEL colleagues and teams across the organisation, the Learning Advisor ensures that evidence is translated into actionable insights, learning is systematically embedded into decision-making, and cross-organisational knowledge is shared and used to strengthen peacebuilding outcomes. The post-holder helps foster a culture of critical reflection, collaboration and continuous learning, improvement and adaptation across Saferworld's programmes and partnerships.
Distinct from the MEL Advisor role, which focuses on generating and assuring the quality of evidence, the Learning Advisor focuses on connecting learning and evidence to strengthen work in partnership and influencing, collaborating with the MEL Advisor to ensure coherence across the MEL function.
About Saferworld: an international organisation dedicated to conflict prevention and peacebuilding programming, policy and practice, working with partners across Africa, Asia, the Middle East and Europe. Benefits include 28 days annual leave plus Bank Holidays, pension plan, hybrid and flexible working, a wellbeing day, health and wellbeing portal and Employee Assistance Programme, life assurance, and medical insurance in countries without a national health scheme.
