Deputy Country Director – Programs

The Deputy Country Director (DCD) for Programs, reporting directly to the Country Director, will play a pivotal role in enhancing program quality and expanding Sudan’s comprehensive portfolio, which includes community engagement, health, nutrition, protection, livelihoods, and WASH initiatives. Tasked with supervising all strategic program operations and coordination within Relief International’s Sudan Country program, the DCD Programs will work closely with the Sudan Country Director on strategic planning, securing new projects/program opportunities, and the systematic execution, monitoring, and evaluation of projects.

This role involves leading the team of technical program managers and sector leads, managing grants, overseeing reporting, enhancing communications, and ensuring the highest standards of program management. Furthermore, the DCD Programs will serve as an essential conduit between the Sudan program and the regional and global technical teams, bolstering RI’s capacity for networking, fostering strategic partnerships with Clusters, UN Agencies, INGOs, and ensuring robust collaborations with local organizations and communities. Additionally, in the absence of the Country Director, the DCD will assume leadership, supporting both the Country Director and the country teams. This position, based in Port Sudan/Khartoum or remotely, will necessitate travel to field locations across all Sudanese states.
