The Organisation

Plan International is an independent development and humanitarian organisation that advances children’s rights and equality for girls. We believe in the power and potential of every child but know this is often suppressed by poverty, violence, exclusion and discrimination. And it is girls who are most affected.

Working together with children, young people, supporters and partners, we strive for a just world, tackling the root causes of the challenges girls and vulnerable children face. We support children’s rights from birth until they reach adulthood and we enable children to prepare for and respond to crises and adversity. We drive changes in practice and policy at local, national and global levels using our reach, experience and knowledge.

For over 85 years, we have rallied other determined optimists to transform the lives of all children in more than 80 countries.

We won’t stop until we are all equal.

The opportunity

We are seeking a highly experienced humanitarian professional to lead the NGO Platform (NGOP) Secretariat. The NGOP is a coordination mechanism representing national and international NGOs working across the Rohingya refugee response and wider humanitarian operations in Cox's Bazar, Bangladesh. Bringing together NGOs, government stakeholders, UN agencies, donors, and other humanitarian actors, the Platform plays a vital role in strengthening collaboration, collective advocacy, humanitarian access, information sharing, and accountability to affected populations.

Since May 2026, Plan International Bangladesh has served as the host agency for the NGO Platform, providing operational, administrative, and fiduciary support while ensuring the Secretariat remains accountable to the NGOP Steering Committee and wider membership.

In this influential role, you will provide strategic leadership and day-to-day management of the Secretariat, enabling the Platform to deliver its priorities while maintaining neutrality and representing the collective interests of its members.

Working at the heart of one of the world's largest and most complex humanitarian responses, you will lead coordination, advocacy, representation, and partnership efforts, strengthening engagement with government authorities, UN agencies, donors, NGO networks, and other key stakeholders. You will play a critical role in supporting humanitarian access, driving evidence-based decision-making, promoting localisation, and advancing principled humanitarian action for Rohingya refugees and host communities.

This is a unique opportunity for an accomplished relationship-builder, strategic thinker, and collaborative leader to shape humanitarian coordination in Bangladesh, influence key decision-makers, and help improve outcomes for vulnerable communities through collective action and partnership.

Plan International believes that in a world where children face so many threats of harm, it is our duty to ensure that we, as an organisation, do everything we can to keep children safe.
