Transparency International is a global movement with one vision: a world in which government, business, civil society and the daily lives of people are free of corruption. With more than 100 chapters worldwide and an international secretariat in Berlin, we are leading the fight against corruption to turn this vision into reality.
The Transparency International Secretariat is currently seeking a Project Manager (50%) to manage the closure of our ‘”Promoting active citizen engagement to fight against corruption in South Eastern Europe” (ACE) project, funded by the German Ministry of Foreign Affairs, in our Projects Team.
The overall objective of the project is to enable rights holders and duty bearers in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Kosovo, North Macedonia, Montenegro and Serbia to participate in the fight against corruption towards improving the quality of democratic governance in the Southeast Europe. More specifically, the project applies a two-folded approach:
– targeting civil society to enable them to pursue their rights and to reject corruption through Advocacy and Legal Advice Centres (ALACs) and
– supporting advocacy actions oriented towards duty bearers to strengthen institutional frameworks that fight corruption.
The role requires a highly motivated and organised professional with sound experience in complex project management, donor relationship and reporting, monitoring, evaluation and learning (MEL) and excellent co-ordination and communication skills.
The two-year project started in July 2022 and is due to close in June 2024. This role will be responsible for managing the project to successful closure during its last nine months.
The successful candidate will be offered a contract limited for up to ten months, when the available funding ends.
Role Purpose: The Project Manager (ACE), is responsible for ensuring smooth implementation of the project, coordinating the work flow, financial and administrative management of the project and ensuring that agreed goals, best practice standards in project management and MEL, donor obligations and TI-S regulations are met relating to the project implementation by TI-S and partners. In particular, this role will manage successful closure of the project, including delivering a high-quality closing workshop and donor reporting.
