corporations to task. And in doing so, we’ve changed thousands of lives for the
better. Forging ahead, we’re looking for an exceptional facilitator and leader
to support and coordinate Amnesty International’s global operations.

the role
In
this high profile role as part of the International Secretariat’s Senior
Leadership team, you’ll take overall responsibility for the operations of our
regional offices. That means overseeing the initial recruitment of, and
offering ongoing support to, the regional hub directors, as well as directing
and coordinating all regional operations – supporting the planning and
execution of regional work, motivating staff and management and making sure stakeholders
are engaged and delivering to objectives throughout the regions. It also means
creating, implementing and enforcing policies and strategies – setting out a
clear and cohesive direction to promote effective communication across the
regions and ensure our Regional Management Teams take a consistent global
approach to their work across all offices. Put simply, you’ll make sure the
entire Amnesty International operation is pulling in the same direction.
