  • Autonomy in planning, organising, and prioritising your workload.
What you will bring :
  • Experience in Human Rights or social sustainability with or within the private sector, with a good understanding of the core Business & Human Rights standards and where they sit within the global geopolitical and economic landscape.
  • Technical expertise on human or labour rights issues or worker welfare topics such as modern slavery, living wages, indigenous peoples and local communities’ rights, gender mainstreaming, just transition, with existing knowledge of impact program typologies, methodologies and tools.
