- Contribute to developing strategies to strengthen FCLLO’s mental health programming and scale up the VUGA UKIRE Hub model.
- Actively network, build partnerships, and support resource mobilization efforts to ensure sustainability and growth of mental health and psychosocial programs.
Required Qualifications
- Bachelor’s degree (or higher) in Clinical Psychology, Counselling, Psychiatric Mental Health Nursing, Social Work, or a related field.
- At least 3 years of experience providing mental health or psychosocial support, preferably in the context of SGBV or trauma recovery.
- Demonstrated knowledge of trauma-informed care and community mental health principles.
- Strong project management, advocacy, and communication skills.
- Experience in partner engagement, fundraising, or proposal writing is a strong asset.
- High emotional intelligence, integrity, resilience, and a genuine passion for healing work.
