Senior Change Manager-Localization Transition (Specific Contract-6 Months)new

The Tanzania Country Office is transitioning from direct implementation to a partner-led operating model, repositioning SCI as a technical, convening, and systems-strengthening organisation supporting sustainable, locally led impact for children.

•    Work directly with the Country Director and SLT to plan, sequence, and execute the transition roadmap
•    Ensure staff, partners, donors, and government stakeholders are aligned and engaged
•    Manage organisational change across structure, culture, capabilities, and ways of working
•    Mitigate risks related to delivery continuity, reputation, staff transition, and partner capacity
•    Embed sustainable change systems, not just short-term transition delivery
