The PM will work closely with Peacebuilding’s 360 team, made up of the Managing Director, two Senior Directors, and Director.

The PM will also serve as a key liaison with the HU Operations team and will maintain relationships across the organization with key partners.

The successful candidate will be an engaging teammate who can move efficiently between teams to build effective processes, help develop a collaborative and transparent team culture, and orchestrate the co-creation of decision-making processes. Ideally, the candidate will have outstanding attention to detail and be a self-confident, creative and independent self-starter.
