1. Background/Context

Plan International Inc. (PII) relies upon the contributions of a variety of stakeholders to help realise its mission. PII works closely with a large number of non-employees i.e. volunteers, community supporters and partners who play a crucial role in day-to-day operations including data collection tasks. The new strategy of ‘All Girls Standing Strong’ suggests that this will continue to increase in the future with perhaps greater requirements for providing access to organizational systems as Plan looks to become more digitally connected and data driven.

Plan International currently do not have a system or governance framework for managing the non-employee journey. Practices may vary from office to office.

Plan International Global Hub is seeking a consultant to  consultancy   support the development of Non-Employee Management (NEM) practice, within PII, i.e. systems, people and set of processes to manage the lifecycle of non-employees, taking into consideration local laws and requirements. The consultant  will work with the Strategic Leadership High Potential Programme (SLHPP) team to map current understanding of NEM across the organization and will then design a non-employee management practice (systems requirement, people/structure/roles and set of processes) that is required to support organizational efforts to improve digital data collection. This will help efficiency of Plan International Sponsorship and Monitoring & Evaluation processes as well as strengthening evidence and accountability of Plan International’s work.

In the first year, it is estimated that for 26,000 accounts of Digital Data Collectors (DDC) will be targeted to design for and implement this practice around prior to scaling this effort to manage other non-employees in this organization in the next 2-3 years.
