Job Description

We deliver lifesaving support and help build safer futures — with girls’ voices, leadership and resilience at the centre.

When emergencies strike, girls face the greatest risks and your expertise can help protect them.

Join Plan International’s Emergency Response Roster and be ready to deploy at short notice, supporting locally led teams to protect girls, save lives and deliver urgent support when it’s needed most.

Conflict, climate shocks and disasters are pushing girls into greater danger, cutting off their access to education, safety and choice. When this happens, we act fast and we stay.

We support locally led responses, working alongside teams who know their communities best. Together, we help keep girls safe, protect their rights and support recovery long after the crisis fades from the headlines.

Our Emergency Response Roster brings together experienced professionals ready to step in and strengthen these efforts. In recent years, roster members have supported rapid responses across multiple humanitarian contexts, helping deliver life-saving assistance within days of emergencies unfolding.

Crises don’t affect everyone equally. Girls are often the first to lose protection and the last to be prioritised. When the right people are in place at the right time, it can make a critical difference.

By joining the roster, you can:

  • Protect girls from violence and exploitation
  • Support girls to keep learning during emergencies
  • Strengthen access to health and wellbeing services
  • Back local responders leading the response in their communities

This is more than rapid response. It’s showing up fast and staying when girls are at greatest risk.

We’re seeking experienced, values-driven professionals who:

  • Put girls at the centre of humanitarian response
  • Respect and support local leadership and lived experience
  • Work effectively in complex, high-pressure environments
  • Are committed to ethical, accountable action

Roster members deploy as needed, working with local and national teams to strengthen responses in some of the world’s most challenging contexts.

Be ready to act when the next crisis hits.Add your expertise to a global network ready to protect lives and defend rights wherever crisis strikes, working alongside local teams to protect lives and defend girls’ rights.
