Wien, Österreich SOS Children's Villages International Vollzeit

SOS Children's Villages, founded in 1949, is the world's largest non-governmental organization focused on supporting children and young people without parental care, or at risk of losing it.- Child neglect, abuse and abandonment is everywhere. Families are at risk of separation. Locally led, we work in more than 130 countries and territories to strengthen families who are under pressure so they can stay together. When this is not in a child or young person's best interests, we provide quality care according to their unique needs.- Together with partners, donors, communities, children, young people and families, we enable children to grow up with the bonds they need to develop and become their strongest selves. We speak up for each child's rights and advocate for change so all children can grow up in a supportive environment.**Location**:Vienna, Innsbruck (Austria), Dakar (Senegal), Addis Ababa (Ethiopia), Nairobi (Kenya, only remote work possible from official home address in Kenya)**Duration**:

SOS Children’s Villages strives to create and ensure a safe environment for everyone who engages with us internally or externally. An environment that does not expose children, young people and adults to harm, sexual exploitation and abuse. It also aims to manage its financial and other assets free from fraud and corruption.- The main high-level purposes of the Safeguarding and Anti-Corruption /Asset Protection team area are:
a) to lead and champion safeguarding priorities, strategies and action plans to ensure safeguarding and Anti-Corruption and Asset Protection are mainstreamed across all parts of the Federation

- Our Safeguarding approach is grounded in our organisation’s values of accountability, courage, trust, and commitment and Living Our Values. Our incident management is victim and survivor centred. Child Safeguarding covers children, young people and individuals who have left the care of SOS Children’s Villages Programmes; people affected by current and past abuse are in focus.- The purpose of the position is to build and continuously strengthen the Federation’s capability in Child Safeguarding. SOS Children’s Villages interacts through its programmes with tens of thousands of children in the provision of direct alternative care or, with partners, delivering family strengthening and other child centred programmes outside SOS Childrens Villages organisations. The provision of direct alternative care means that SOS Children’s Villages has specific and elevated safeguarding risks which differentiate it from other INGOs.Working jointly with the Head of Adult Safeguarding and as required, other Safeguarding functions under the leadership of the Global Director of Safeguarding, the Head of Child Safeguarding develops, implements and strengthens integrated strategies, policies, processes, tools, training, systems and monitoring processes with specific focus on children and youth.
