About Us
One of the world's most prominent anti-poverty groups is looking for a senior director of global communications to help it "catch the moment" and "lift up the diversity of IPA's voices," Fortune reports.
The director will be responsible for developing and executing a new marketing and communications strategy to expand the conversation on evidence use and lift up the diversity of IPA's voices for the dual purpose of 1) growing IPA's impact and influence in the world and 2) reaching partner audiences (donors, funders, policy makers, and implementers).
"The ideal candidate will be an experienced leader and communicator; knowledgeable about global development, rigorous evidence, and at least one or two sectors; and possess an entrepreneurial spirit," the International Policy Alliance says in a statement.
The ideal candidate "will be intellectually curious, ask probing questions that get to the heart of the matter, and will possess a clear understanding of the role of communications in policy, systems, and mindset change," the statement continues.
