UNICEF, a global leader working across 190 countries to protect and uplift children, is looking for a Deputy Representative Programme to join their dynamic team in Dar es Salaam. This is not just a job—it's an opportunity to champion child rights, shape key programmes, and lead initiatives that will improve the lives of children in Tanzania.
Why This Role Matters
At UNICEF, every position holds a profound responsibility to bring about real change. As the Deputy Representative, you’ll be at the forefront of transforming policies into actions, making sure UNICEF's efforts reach children in need. Your work will touch early childhood development, adolescent programs, and systems strengthening to achieve sustainable, large-scale impact.
What You’ll Be Doing
In this critical role, you’ll support the Country Office (CO) by leading a talented team and ensuring the effective delivery of UNICEF’s strategic plans. Some key responsibilities include:
- Programme Planning and Development: You'll be a key decision-maker in the design and execution of UNICEF’s initiatives, ensuring alignment with global standards.
- Monitoring and Quality Control: You'll oversee program effectiveness, ensuring accountability and adherence to UNICEF’s ethics and performance standards.
- Building Alliances: Represent UNICEF in national and international partnerships, driving collaboration to achieve results for children at scale.
- Private Sector Engagement: Innovate and foster partnerships to unlock new resources for UNICEF’s programs.
This position offers a unique opportunity to work in a dynamic environment where your leadership will directly influence the lives of vulnerable children and adolescents.
What You’ll Need to Succeed
To be considered for this exciting role, candidates must meet the following requirements:
- Education: A Master’s degree in social sciences, international relations, public policy, sociology, or a related field.
- Experience: A minimum of 10 years in developmental cooperation, with at least some experience in international settings and in developing countries.

Candidates with experience in Africa, particularly in East Africa, or those familiar with transitioning from Least Developed Countries (LDC) to Middle-Income Countries (MIC) will have an added advantage.
